October 2, 2022,Altes Land: Königreich und Cranz

In the afternoon the sun should come out and the wind should calm down. So we decided to drive to the old country south of the Elbe and on the left edge of Hamburg and hike along the Elbe and Este.
The journey through the port area of Hamburg was exciting, but in the old country you are really outside …

A crazy day - weather-wise - ☁️🌦🌧☀️🌦... Finally improvement at noon, the sun is supposed to shine. So off to the old country: fruit time 🍎🍐... The path leads us from Cranz to the Este barrage. It's low tide with sunshine and many seagulls on the Elbe.
We continue on/op'n Diek, we only see a little of the Elbe at …

We were totally undecided today about where the journey should go 🤷‍♂️🤷🏼‍♀️. So take a quick look in the 📦 collection box 🔎 and get the top tour right away. And that was Viktoria's cheated tour. We know the other side of the Elbe quite well by now, but we haven't gone this route yet. So we had a plan …

October 3, 2024,59/24 Deichwanderung entlang der Elbe und Este

The fruit harvest in the Altes Land is already in its final phase, but a hike on the dykes of the Elbe and Este with the best views of the orchards is still a treat for my soul.

The still existing remains of the Sietas shipyard - the mighty gantry crane - is to be preserved - leave a depressing …

September 26, 2021,62/21 Auf den Deichen der Elbe und Este durch das Alte Land

This afternoon I was out and about on the dykes of the Elbe and Este.

The start was not far from the Este barrage and the goal was in Cranz not far from the taxiway bridge over the Este.

The road to Kingdom to the Este dyke leads through orchards.

Our group hike today went to the Altes Land. Today we were in a small group and were supported by Angie P and Micha P as well as Nicola. So nine wandering people plus two walking collies set off towards the Elbe in bright sunshine. But it didn't take long and the first short rain shower quickly surprised us. We …

October 14, 2023,Das alte Land mit Elas Wandergruppe

First of all, many thanks to Ellen, who planned today's hike, and to Ela, who invited us to come along.
A nice round to make my husband's cramped legs walkable again. In typical northern German autumn weather, we walked through Cranz and over the Elbe dike to reach the Quast family's apple orchards on the Elbe, against the wind and …
