Pünte Ferry on the Großes Meer

Highlight • Bridge

Nice way to get over the water with muscle power. Guaranteed fun for children (not necessarily teenagers) and a bike is also easy to get up and down.

Today we only did a short, relaxed tour (but it was enough given the temperatures and the wind) because we couldn't let Luke run that much.

Despite the windy, changeable weather conditions, a short trip around the Große Meer, Hieve-Kleines Meer and Loppersumer Meer from Südbrookmerland. Due to the Pünte over the Heikeschloot, which is still in hibernation, I had to take a detour of 11km.
