It's a beautiful day, it drives you out of town. So you jump on your bike, possibly crossing the rolling bridge
(komoot.de/highlight/226474),
or come from the port (komoot.de/highlight/3310351)
and then past the traffic jam (komoot.de/highlight/1528446).
But then you see it already, this huge bridge that leads the A29 over the Huntetal. In the meantime, the imposing building with its 8 posts is showing its age and needs to be restored or replaced. But you know, on the way out of the city or back in along the Hunte, the Hunte Bridge is the impressive monument from which every excursion actually begins or ends.
Behind the Bornhorster Huntewiesen nature reserve and the Moorhauser Polder spread out. Maybe you are drawn to the Weser via Huntebrück and Elsfleth. Or you just do a lap around Oldenburg, in parts or completely. In any case, the sight of the Huntebrücke will remain in your memory as a piece of modern building aesthetics.
The view from the bridge is also worthwhile. However, there are a few steps to climb.

In 1978 the current Hunte Bridge was built in Bornhorst and inaugurated on November 1, 1978. It is 441 m long and 30 m high and is part of Highway 29 (Jade Line).

The cycle path along the Hunte is very interesting. You can drive on the northern side as well as on the southern side. The motorway bridge that spans the Hunte is impressive. Built so high because it was believed that even larger ships would come across the river to Oldenburg.
