View of the Elbe River and Elbauen from the Cycle Path

Highlight • Viewpoint

This new cycle path, completely along the dike, with the Elbe meadows and the course of the Elbe in view, is great fun.
From August 1, 2024, it will be completely accessible from the dike behind Arneburg to Tangermünde.

95% very good surfaces for cyclists, mainly asphalt / pavement and concrete, ~ 5% unbound, but easily cycleable surfaces.

Ferry times of the Elbe ferries should be inquired about beforehand, operation of course depends on the season and water levels.

The route downstream runs through typical Altmark villages. You don't see much of the Elbe. For some parts, I followed the "Natura 2000" signs rather than the Elbe Cycle Route. After the ferry crossing, the more scenic section returned to Tangermünde. Plenty of scenery, wildlife, and the Elbe were often very close.
