プラッテンブルクのおすすめライド

The bridge over the Stepenitz is an important crossing just before the river flows into the Elbe. It connects central urban areas with adjacent residential and recreational areas and is used by vehicular traffic, pedestrians, and cyclists. Its location in the river and floodplain landscape offers unobstructed views of the Stepenitz and the surrounding countryside. It is a defining element of Wittenberge's cityscape.

At the weir group near Quitzdöbel, the Elbe, Havel, and Gnevsdorder outflowing waters converge. From here, there is a good view of the Havel estuary.

Initially, the road is paved with interlocking concrete slabs, but the road is easy to ride. Then, it's a perfect glide along the top of the dike with excellent asphalt. Plus, the view of the Elbe and Havel rivers, as well as the beautiful floodplain landscape. A great section.

Havelberg is the smallest of all Hanseatic cities and boasts a very well-preserved town center. It's not ideal for a road bike due to the cobblestones, but I didn't regret the 5-minute detour from the Elbe Cycle Path.

From the lock, you can already see the first confluence of the Elbe and Havel rivers (connecting canal). From here, you continue on the approximately 20 km long section of the Havel Cycle Path, where you're accompanied by water on both sides: the Elbe on the left, the Havel on the right, and then the Gnevsdorf Outfall.

It's very shady in the summer, and has had top-quality asphalt for two years. The main road isn't an alternative. Unfortunately, it ends abruptly before Perleberg, or rather, it's a forest path.

Coming from the Elbe Cycle Path, the classic "entrance door" to Wittenberge.

Truly impressive as you approach Wittenberge. The bridge has a truly monumental quality, yet blends well into the landscape. It has recently been reopened to cyclists.
