The mill is beautiful, you just have to take the back bike path, otherwise you drive directly past the road. And at the crossroads at the “port” we were lucky enough to find a van with delicious fish sandwiches.

View of the Elbe River

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Elberadwanderweg leads directly along the Elbe. The alternation between low and high tide is interesting. The ships are impressive.
There is always a place for a quiet break along the way.

Highlight (Segment) • Natural

A few quiet kilometers through orchards, mostly apple trees. The apple trees are currently in beautiful full bloom. Some side paths lead to ponds. Strange: the flowers were lavishly beautiful, …

We chose one of the two fruit routes to explore the Altes Land. We were able to park for free on the hard shoulder about 1 kilometer from the Lüheanleger. Overall, the tour was nice - unfortunately with some sticks right on the street -. The routes directly through the plantations 🍎 🍏 and the streets with the great half-timbered …

I know what happened. We'll see what comes next 🤔. I hope SiSa and I can stay active for a …

The Buxtehude region touches on the Old Land of the 1st and 2nd Mile, as the settlement years in the Middle Ages were called!
We traveled through beautiful, blooming apple orchards to Buxtehude, a nostalgic old town with many canals along the Este River.
We then continued through "my" kingdom toward Cranz to reach the Elbe River.
The journey touched …

Completely spontaneous tour to see something different, apart from parched heath landscapes. That's why it went to the Elbe. Finally water and ships again.

Park the car in the P+R parking lot in Buxtehude, go to Aldi, get monkey bread and spritzer and pick it up.
Along the Este, to Estebrügge there are finally decent cycle paths again. At the …
