アルトナアーフォルクスパークのおすすめライド

A fantastic cycling and hiking trail leads along this route, amidst beautiful nature and past the half-timbered houses of the Altes Land region with their traditional gateways. Highly recommended and interesting at the same time.

Beautiful view along the Elbe towards Hamburg and the Elbphilharmonie.

It's always worth taking some time here, for example to take photos or to enjoy the view during a short break.

The Este Barrage at Neuenfelde is an important flood protection structure at the mouth of the Este River where it flows into the Elbe near Hamburg-Neuenfelde. It protects the second line of dikes and regulates the water level. It comprises an inner and an outer barrage. A bascule bridge for road traffic is located here, which is occasionally closed for maintenance work, although pedestrians and cyclists can often cross. It protects against storm surges and high inflows of the Este by preventing flooding and regulating the water level. It is situated on the Elbe near the Airbus site and the former Sietas shipyard. The outer barrage is operated by the city of Hamburg, while the inner barrage belongs to the district of the city of Stade and protects the areas behind it as far as Buxtehude. A bascule bridge spans the structure and can be closed to road traffic.

A very beautiful mill in Jork. A short detour from the main road, then turn left and you've arrived. Unfortunately, the café is closed and no longer in operation. A real shame since October 30, 2023. Nevertheless, the mill is still worth seeing.

The old Elbe Tunnel is always worth a visit. Highly recommended. Admission is free; you can take the elevator and your bike in, and you can also walk down and up the stairs.

A hike along the Este dike is highly recommended: a beautiful circular walk. Spring or autumn are best. In the height of summer, there's no shade. You'll be treated to various views of the surrounding nature, the Este River, and the thatched-roof houses. There are plenty of benches for taking a short break. The lock house is also very interesting and worth a visit 👍🏼.
