Great Elbe view with upper and Unterfeuer. The way from here to Freiburg or coming from Freiburg can be very long in unfavorable wind direction - but where is that not so 😉

April 3, 2025,3.4.2025 E-Bike-Tour: Rundfahrt Kehdingen - neuer und alter Elbdeich

From Freiburg to the mouth of the Oste River along the Elbe: it feels like it never ends - it just keeps going. Highlights: the two lighthouses in the outdoor area and the view of the lock system in Brünsbüttel.
Between the old and new Elbe dikes: a nature reserve: flocks of birds!
Returning along the old Elbe dike: many …

Relaxed bike tour along the Elbe to Freiburg and then back behind the dikes. The conclusion, 1km before the finish, marked the stop at Gut Hörne. The BioRadler met my taste 😊👍🏻

A lovely dike loop, initially past many thatched-roof cottages toward Hörne. The cafe at Gut Hörne was unfortunately closed—check opening hours. From there, we continued to the Ostewehr (Ostewehr) and between the dike and the Elbe River toward Freiburg. A nice little harbor with an old granary. Tip: Public restrooms are also located there (unfortunately, they aren't signposted).

September 22, 2021,Von Freiburg (Elbe) entlang zur Oste am alten Elbdeich zurück😊🚲🚲

We enjoyed the beautiful weather today on the Elbe. We started from Freiburg, along the Elbe to the Oste. Along the Oste to Neuhaus. Beautiful place. Again over the Oste and then a piece on the cycle path of the main street. along to Balje. From there it went to Freiburg along the old Elbe dike.

And again, we weren't paying attention. We actually wanted to go over the Oste barrage today, but unfortunately I didn't realise that it wouldn't be possible until September due to maintenance work. I could have easily found that out on the internet. So we crossed the Oste near Geversdorf and then to the Elbe. From here we went to Freiburg. …
