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.

It's a great place to go for a walk. The Elbe beach is beautiful. And lots of ships come by too.

Here you get very close to the Elbe. Really great, especially when it's still stormy
