Elbe Gate of Hartenfels Castle

Highlight • Castle

Architecturally fantastic is this access to the interior of the castle from the Elbe side. It is located directly on the Elbe cycle path, although you have to overcome a few small steps. The portal is definitely worth seeing.

In beautiful weather, we cycled from Belgern along the Elbe cycle path on the left bank of the Elbe to Torgau. Torgau is a beautiful town. From the observation tower of Hartenfels Castle, you have a fantastic view of the whole of Torgau. In the castle itself, you can even admire real brown bears!

In terms of scenery, it was a beautiful tour, hardly any traffic and few cyclists. Many places along the route were simply beautiful.

Because of the weather only in the evening to Belgern to connect to last year's stage.
👍
In the evening mood it was all the more beautiful!
