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.

August 24, 2024,Borstel - Stade, immer gegen den Wind

For sightseeing in Stade, we cycle along the Elbe dyke and deliberately against the wind so that the return journey is easier. We pass the reactor of what was once Germany's most fault-prone nuclear power plant and head into Stade. We were really surprised by the beautiful, old-fashioned houses and alleyways. The old town is really cute. After the lunch …

A beautiful loop from Stade to Jork. The route leads past countless apple orchards. A magnificent sight in spring when they're in bloom or in autumn when they're ripe. The return route along the Elbe Cycle Path offers fantastic views of the Elbe River, ships, and ferries. There are several opportunities for a quick stop along the way. The ferry …

Today the weather was perfect for a bike ride again. After a leisurely breakfast in the morning sun, we cycled in the other direction today, to Stade. After a few kilometers we went straight into Stade on a small road, always along the rows of fruit trees.

Stade is beautiful and, in our opinion, always worth a visit. Today was no different. We cycled from our accommodation to the marina. There we had a delicious breakfast and enjoyed a fantastic view of the harbor and the Elbe River. Then we cycled along the Elbe to Stade and from there back (by a different route). It was great …
