Despite the pedestrian and cycle path closures, you can simply cycle on the road. Yesterday (Sunday) that wasn't a problem. 😉

First along the Baltic Sea coast to the bridge, where we could still help someone find the cycling ramp to get onto the bridge.
From there, continue on the Baltic Sea Cycle Route to Heiligenhafen.
Ok, you've seen it, but for cyclists like me, it's not really anything.
The way back was easy because there was still a south wind.
