View of container ships on the River Elbe

Highlight • Viewpoint

A beautiful path directly along the Elbe: the mighty dyke on the left and the Elbe on the right. Ships that seem to come slowly pass surprisingly quickly. Migratory birds fly in large flocks over the Elbe. There is always a place to take a break. In summer, sheep graze here. They "live" here - the cyclists are just guests.

Dune Path in Duhnen

Highlight • Cycleway

Hi,

We had a great hike today in the Duhner Heide nature reserve in Cuxhaven. We explored the Duhner Heide, which is a protected area, and it was wonderful – well worth a visit, even in February 💝. A quick trip to the beach was a must, of course – always beautiful 😊. A fantastic cycling and hiking trail runs through the beautiful natural surroundings. Absolutely spectacular and highly recommended 👍🏻.

After only 10 km of walking or covered wagon ride you are already in Hamburg - the island of Neuwerk belongs to Hamburg.

Duhnen Beach

Highlight • Beach

I cannot recommend a tour from Duhnen at this time of the year. From there you can continue along the coast to Sahlenburg, Spieka Neufeld and Dorum, but Duhnen is e.g. Currently overcrowded. In any case, I don't enjoy cycling there.

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.
