August 10, 2022,Runde um den Busen der Natur 🌊

Today I did a relaxed lap around the breast 😆. What is meant, of course, is the Jadebusen. Start and finish is the port of Varel. Via Dangast we continue in the direction of Wilhelmshaven. The Kaiser Wilhelm Bridge is very beautiful here 🌉. From Wilhelmshaven we take the ferry ⛴️ over to the other side to Eckwarderhörne and from …

Another great tour. There is no better way to spend a day off than on a bike by the water. It's really great when the weather cooperates. Today it should be a circumnavigation of the Jade Bay. It started early in Wilhelmshaven. With a fantastic view, we took the ferry to Eckwarderhörne. From there we went towards Varel. On the …

Start and finish: Beckmannsfeld near "Kunst am Deich"
From here along the dyke to the diversion onto the road to Varel (unfortunately not found the transition to the floating moor).
Long distance driven on the bike path on the street, then on the bike path along the dike to Vareler Hafen.
We ate great fish here and continued on the …

June 26, 2024,Rund um den Jadebusen😎☀️

Today I made it happen and cycled around the Jade Bay😎
From Tossens I went to Eckwarderhörne, where I took the ferry to Wilhelmshaven. I thought the price of 18 euros was quite steep, but it's no use, there's no other way to get across😉
In Wilhelmshaven you start right at the naval base, where you can see a few …

Round the Jade Bay.
Wadden Sea, bird watching and sightseeing in Wilhelmshaven.
Hints:
Note the ferry times.
Construction site near Stollhamm - here it goes along the road.
Often a strong wind and always felt from the front 😀.

The "Friesendom" is a sculpture for the victims of the past storm surges and a memorial for the constant threat to our coast from the sea. It forms a cross in plan, which is aligned with the four cardinal points (cloister). The bronze bell (The Friesian) in the center begins to ring at hurricane-force winds and warns - as it …

Start at the Helgoland-Kai in Wilhelmshaven, over with the passenger and bicycle ferry to Eckwarderhörne. First along the dyke, then on the (rather boring) diversion route to Dangast. First recording 😊 🥗🐟 ☕️ at the beach café, then further on and next to the dike to Wilhelmshaven. This section of the route was the most beautiful part of this 🚲 …
