Ring Trail at Braunschweig Power Plant

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

This ring track section leads from Hamburger Straße to Oker between an allotment garden club and the Braunschweig-Mitte thermal power station. You drive on the asphalt road directly under the 198 meter high chimney, built in 1984 and the tallest structure in the city. On the narrow, winding path, however, you should be careful of pedestrians and oncoming traffic.

Highlight • Lake

When the weather is good, you can take a relaxing walk around the lake.
As a first visit, I liked it a lot. It's fun by bike or on foot.
