Wooden bridge at Hagenburg

Highlight • Bridge

The view from the bridge to the castle is wonderful and the area is really beautiful. If you are lucky, you will also find grazing Galloways on the other side of the river nearby.

Very nice circular tour that leads along good cycle paths. First right by the sea, then through the nature reserve and heathland.
To finish, a fish sandwich in Steinhude and a stroll in the center 👍
Great cycle paths, highly recommended. 👌
PS: I would recommend doing the circular tour in the morning.
At 10 a.m. there was already a …

This Sunday we once again strapped our e-bikes to the little Frenchman at our place of residence and rode 120 km to the Steinhuder Meer and circled it. The highlight was coffee and cake at the "Flying Barista" in Mardorf. Rosterei with great cakes, our top was caramel & espresso cheesecake 👌👍

Parking recommendation: Parking lot in the southwest of Steinhude.

It's best to head for one of the first parking spaces near the RV parks. These are ticketed parking spaces, further in are the parking spaces with barriers and automatic gates. For cycling, it makes no difference in terms of distance.

September 10, 2024,Steinhude - Hagenburg - Mardorf - Strand - Steinhude ( Runde ums Steinhuder Meer)

Tuesday afternoon,
18°, initially sunny, then cloudy and very windy.

Since the weather forecast for the next few days is not good (cold rain showers), we took another trip around Lake Steinhude. This time clockwise - but it was just as varied as the other way around...just colder and windier than last week.
