The pedestrian tunnel has a very long escalator and an elevator. The crossing is not a problem with a bicycle.

Due to a technical defect, the transporter bridge is out of service until further notice. Visit the WSV website for more information. Use the Nobiskrug ferry. Two ferries operate there. ✅

Parking directly at the north portal of the pedestrian tunnel.

Then through the tunnel and on the south side on the NOK in an easterly direction to the Rendsburger Hochbrücke with the transporter bridge... quite an impressive structure! Continue east to the free Nobiskrug Channel Ferry.

Once ferried across, as I said, absolutely free.

An extensive hike along the Kiel Canal. Pedestrians and cyclists can walk and cycle directly along the canal. The Nobis ferry will soon be arriving towards Kiel. You can also rent bicycles there. Return along the other side to the pedestrian tunnel in Rendsburg. You'll pass the elevated railway bridge and ship welcoming facility again, giving you a view from …

Traveled to Schleswig-Holstein today for the reopening of the Rendsburg transporter bridge, which was destroyed in a collision in 2016. Of course, it was just a coincidence that it happened that way. Since the weather was not on the Easter side, a little stroll along the canal was announced. There was a relatively large amount of ship traffic to be …
