Upper Alster Trail

Highlight • Trail

Very nice section on the Alster. Apart from the racing bike, every type of bike can be used. Beware some confusing / poorly visible curves.

Alsterwanderweg

Highlight • Trail

Unfortunately, one has to say: The Alster hiking trail is beautiful - and therefore something like the "Touri standard program"! Although it is not so much tourists who get lost …

Alster Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The whole Alster hiking trail is recommended for a bike tour. You have to be considerate of pedestrians. So it's not a racetrack.

Oberalster River

Highlight (Segment) • River

Beautiful and green way from the north almost to the center of Hamburg. Everytime you find new corners and ways. Here you forget that you are in a million metropolis.

Saselbek Cycle Path (Volksdorf)

Highlight • Cycleway

The path along the Saselbek is a kind of insider tip. You can drive well away from the hectic roads here and then continue east in Haines-Iland. There you continue in nature when you cross Bergstedter Chaussee.

The Volksdorfer Teichwiesen were a tunnel valley under the glacier in the last Ice Age around 20,000 years ago.
