A perfect destination for a day trip with horses and dogs.
Eichbaumsee is a particularly beautiful destination for a day trip with animals.


There's a large dog-running area between the lake and the Elbe River.

March 1, 2026,11/26 Vom Mittleren Landweg nach Rothenburgsort
This sunny Sunday afternoon, I hiked along familiar paths between the Mittlerer Landweg S-Bahn station and Rothenburgsort.

Eichbaumsee, the Dove Elbe river, the Tatenberg lock, Holzhafen, Kaltehofe, and Billwerder Bucht were the highlights of this approximately 12 km hike.

Currently, due to construction work, a small detour is necessary along the Dove Elbe near the water sports center.

With the best autumn weather, I used my day off for a very relaxing hike from the Mittlerer Landweg to Rothenburgsort.

We followed well-known paths along the Dove Elbe, the Eichbaumsee and the North Elbe and with a small detour to the Elbe island of Kaltehofe to the Billwerder Bay barrier and on to the S-Bahn.

Together with a friend we went from the Mittlerer Landweg S-Bahn station to the Elbbrücken S-Bahn station.

I started the first stage at the point of the "Green Ring" closest to my place of residence.

Beautiful, lonely tour at the beginning of the year.

It went along the Dove and Norderelbe over the Eichbaumsee, Holzhafen, Elbinsel and Wasserkunst Kaltehofe and the Elbpark Entenwerder to the destination.

June 18, 2024,113 Dove Elbe
There is not a single bench for relaxation or a break on the main dyke for 6 km. Sitting on the grass is impossible because of the ants! But the view from the top of the dyke with water on both sides is beautiful!

Section 5 of the Hamburg Green Ring 2 was too busy with roads in places. The walk across the Elbe bridges was also simply too noisy. The dog parks were well-frequented; apparently, there are several dog daycares in the area. The Kaltehofe Waterworks on the Elbe island was unfortunately closed. I would have liked to have taken a closer look.
