Gartower Lake

Highlight • Lake

In wet weather, the north bank is very muddy in two places. I prefer to take the road and drive back down past the restaurant.

September 19, 2024,Elberunde Lenzen - Dömitz

A beautiful circular tour from Lenzen to Dömitz and back.
On the eastern side you cycle long stretches on the dike, on the western side you cycle a lot through forests and on cycle paths on roads with little traffic.
But the route is easy to cycle on both sides.

A beautiful, sunny tour with breaks in Langendorf, Gorleben, Gartow in the forest cemetery, and via the ferry to Lenzen. The return trip then follows the dike via Dömitz to Dannenberg... No delicious ice cream in Dömitz today, but it's good for the figure. 🤪😎🚴🏻‍♀️☕️

September 9, 2025,Fa WE, Fähre Lenzen bis Dömitz und zurück.

The outward journey to Dömitz was again great:
Easy-to-ride bike paths along the dike with magnificent views of the Elbe and the Elbe floodplains.
Some particularly beautiful half-timbered houses on the landward side.
I didn't like the return journey, with a lot of road and a forest path with rough gravel.

A great round from Dömitz to Lenzen and back again on both sides of the Elbe. On the left side of the Elbe you drive through fields and villages, on the right side of the Elbe you actually only drive on the Elbe dike. Beautiful houses on the dike and very, very beautiful area. A dream!

Nice houses with thatched roof. They are very similar to those in England near ''Beaulieu'' south west London

March 30, 2024,Dömitz - Lenzen- Gorleben-Dömitz

From the port of Dömitz almost always directly on the Elbe/Elbaren. In Lenzen take the ferry ⛴️ over and then towards Gorleben. Nice tour, highly recommended 👍🏻

September 5, 2023,Rundtour ♻️ von Dömitz nach Lenzen (Elbe)

Last day today for us here in Dömitz on the Elbe. 🥲
Yes, it was really nice here!!!

At the end we drove the aborted tour from the first day - great 👍

For me the final highlight was the Dömitz railway bridge, I was looking forward to it the whole holiday! 🙂

Very nice tour along the Elbe to the next ferry in Lenzen, then crossed over and back to the parking spot at the harbor on the other side of the Elbe. The weather could have been better but it was OK.
