Grimmershörnbucht Promenade and View of the Kugelbake

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

The Grimmershörnbucht with its crescent-shaped arch from the ferry port to the Kugelbake is perhaps the geographically most distinctive place in Cuxhaven. Beautiful.

Small upstream fishing port, after the reclamation of new areas created from land reclamation, since the actual place was then too far away from the water. One of the best restaurants in the area is here.

June 11, 2024,Cuxhaven nach Bremerhaven Tag 9 Aller-Elbe-Weser Tour

After the rain comes the rain. Today we went first to the end of the Elbe cycle path and to the start of the Weser cycle path to the Kugelbarke in Cuxhaven. Then we continued south with a strong westerly wind. There were a couple of rain showers in between. Shortly before Bremerhaven there was blue sky and a pleasant …

On the eighth day of our tour, we reached our planned destination, the Kugelbake in Cuxhafen, around 3:00 p.m. This section of the Weser Cycle Path is very nice to ride because it almost only goes along the dike. You definitely see a lot more tourists on bicycles here, and from Duhnen onwards there are also many pedestrians heading towards …

Even the ferry ride is an experience when you see the imposing buildings and the overseas port on the other side of the Weser. The route runs right through the port area; unfortunately not always well signposted. This is followed by quiet passages along the dyke (hardly any places to stop for refreshments). Tourism only slowly starts from Dorum-Neufeld.

The penultimate day's stage of the Weser Cycle Path, I ride it like the previous one komoot.com/de-de/tour/3057038604 upstream along the Unterweser, due to the north-easterly tailwind. The start at the „Bürgerbahnhof“ begins with a short city tour. From the „Alten Liebe“, the very last section of the Elbe Cycle Path is my route, which runs along the Grimmershörn bathing bay …

My bike tour began at the train station in Buxtehude. From there I took the evb train to Bremerhaven.

I have done this tour before. Unlike today, I started in Cuxhaven in 2014. So it's high time to do this route again.

When we drove off this morning, you could already see from the clouds that it was going to rain. Between Duhnen and Spieka/Neufeld we were hit with heavy showers. On the way towards Bhaven you got dry again between Cappel/Neufeld and Dorum/Neufeld. No wonder, there was a constant headwind of up to 60 km/h. Good that it stayed dry for …
