Very quaint and also practical: I made myself comfortable in the armchair and waited for the rain.

High sheep density, correspondingly many "obstacles" along the route. The surface is good. Great view towards Cuxhaven. The Elbe River already smells a bit like the North Sea. On the Glückstadt side, there are beautiful thatched-roof properties behind the dike.

A wonderful place to linger by the harbor. Great food and very well-designed seating, as well as the floral decorations and surrounding fairy lights. A wonderful sight to behold and highly recommended.
