Drakenburg Weir

Highlight • Structure

little info from the net:

The barrage Drakenburg is a barrage on the Weser in Drakenburg near the Lower Saxony town of Nienburg/Weser. It consists of a weir, an integrated small pram lock and a hydroelectric power station. The Drakenburg lock for shipping on the Weser is located in a lock canal that shortens several river bends

Weser Ferry Schweringen

Highlight • Structure

While this "exotic" Weser crossing was primarily used in the past by farmers from Schweringen with agricultural land east of the river to handle necessary agricultural transport, nowadays it is increasingly cyclists and other tourists who appreciate the opportunity for a "romantic" river crossing.

The Weser ferry in Schweringen is a cable ferry powered by an electric motor (mains connection).

Quite surprisingly, I came across this playful wall on the Weser cycle path. Right next to it, a seating group invites you to take a break 👍

Weser Lock Canal

Highlight • River

The Weser Lock Canal near Sebbenhausen presents itself as a quiet, narrow waterway lined with green banks. A cycling tour through the region offers a particularly idyllic view. Occasionally, small boats pass by, and the landscape stretches flat and peacefully in both directions. The route along the canal is ideal for cyclists who want to experience the quiet, natural side of this river landscape – with wide skies above the treetops and the typical North German expanse.

Komoot prematurely declared the tour over today and so today there are 2 parts. 😖
It was already warm in the morning and it was foreseeable that it would get hot. Loaded with a lot of water, we set out to explore the next section and built in many extra breaks...

May 12, 2024,Drakenburg - Weserfährenrunde von Nienburg aus.

A beautiful bike tour starting in Nienburg. Mostly along the Weser. The terrain varied. Gravel, asphalt, cobblestones. The highlight is the ferry crossing to the other side of the Weser. There is a great restaurant right at the ferry dock. Highly recommended.

May 12, 2024,Nienburg Rundfahrt

A beautiful bike tour with start and finish in Nienburg.
The route, almost always along the Weser, is easy to cycle despite the different surfaces. (Gravel, cobblestones, asphalt)
There is hardly any uphill (saves battery)
