Elbe Floodplain Near Barförde

Highlight • Natural

The Elbvorland is characterized by the dynamics of the Elbe. Sandwalls and flood plains are recognizable. The different soil conditions affect the composition of plant species in grassland. The activities of the beaver are obvious. At high tide, islands form on which geese can rest undisturbed.

Hohnstorf Elbe Dike and Nature Reserve View

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

In Hohnstorf begins the nature reserve Elbtalaue. You walk along the dike, either at the bottom of the water, at the top with the best view or behind the dike on the Elbe Cycle Path.

On the dike with some caution, because the safety of the march depends on the dikes.

A pair of binoculars is essential for bird watching.

Milk House Sassendorf

Highlight • Cafe

This rest area for cyclists has a covered seating, practically in the rain. When I was surprised by a shower on my tour, I sought shelter in the lee of a tree. That worked, but if I had driven only 200 m, this place would have been better.

The season at Melkhus starts on May 1st. This place is located in Sassendorf near Hohnstorf. The yoghurts are really delicious. It is a popular resting place for cyclists in summer.
