Bremerhaven–Blexen ferry crossing

Highlight (Segment) • Rest Area

That was a great highlight of my tour. From the ferry you have a great view of Bremerhaven and the water. A short trip to the upper deck is worthwhile.

August 30, 2022,Wo endet die Weser🤔?

From Bremerhaven we take a bike trip to the western bank of the Weser, starting at the Old Geeste Bridge. The memorial, with which Friedrich Busse is honored as the founder of German deep-sea fishing, was built in 1936 according to designs by the 'clinker prince' and active National Socialist Franz Höger (Chile-Haus, Hamburg, Anzeige-Haus, Hanover) and in the presence …

It was windy and fresher than the day before. It was more of a "cool" idea to cycle the tour in shorts. It's a shame that there is no cycle/footpath on the dike. So on one side there is always a dike and on the other side you can admire a few thatched houses. Near Burhave we witnessed the efforts …

On Sunday, the last tour before the journey home. We took the Weser ferry to Blexen again. After 7.5 km, we already saw the first highlights, with the beautifully designed information stone of the Weser estuary and a panoramic view of the Bremerhaven skyline.
Then we continued along the dike to Burhave, with a pier and small harbor, and to …

Our Budjadinger bike tour has one goal: the Langwarder Groden. On the very good bike path there, we first took the ferry across the Weser - Bremerhaven to Nordenham-Blexen.
In Blexen the path led directly past the Weserstein (see photo). There are two Wesersteine: one at the beginning of the Weser in Hannoversch Münden and the second where the Weser …

April 27, 2025,Butjadingen mit Blexen-Burhave und Fedderwardersiel

This morning, I cycled from Bremerhaven, taking the Weser ferry to the Butjadingen peninsula (which, by the way, is in the Wesermarsch district). The crossing takes about 12 minutes and costs €9 per person with a bike, round trip. I took a photo of the departure times; perhaps someone might be interested.
The towns we passed through, Blexen, Burhave, and …

So today, in gorgeous weather, I cycled to Bremerhaven, took the ferry in Brexen, and then did some sightseeing in Bremerhaven. Afterwards, I cycled back and, as a reward, enjoyed a delicious beer 🍻 in Fedderwadersiel "Achtern Deck" while soaking up the sun ☀️. It was a wonderful day 🥰
