Weinberg Bridge over the Ilmenau River

Highlight • Bridge

The relatively long wooden bridge is the "Weinberg Bridge". There is a good view of the Ilmenau on both sides.

King's Bridge over the River Ilmenau

Highlight • Bridge

If you want to drive around the city center on the northern outskirts of Bad Bevensen, this route can be taken over the Königsbrücke.
The way there is a gravel path, so not for the "fast" racing cyclists among us.
You will be rewarded with a beautiful view of the Ilmenau river. Clear, easily flowing water. It is definitely worth taking a break here.

Stone Steps to Sängershöh

Highlight • Trail

Massive stone steps here can leave some people out of breath...but from "above" you are rewarded with a very beautiful view of the Ilmenau river flowing past!

Sängershöh Pavilion with views over the Ilmenau

Highlight • Mountain Hut

At the highest point far and wide, a good 20-30 meters above the Ilmenau, stands this delightful wooden shingle-covered octagonal hut. A wooden badge shows them off with the name of the club that founded them and the year 1910. Interestingly, it was a bowling club, but apparently they also liked to sing.

Willow-lined avenue along the Ilmenau River

Highlight • Trail

Nice at any time. A barren sight in winter, a dream in summer.

Ilmenau River at Bad Bevensen Spa Park

Highlight (Segment) • River

The Ilmenau is a wonderful small heath river, which is still relatively young here in Bad Bevensen. It continues to flow over Lüneburg, is channeled at the end and then flows into the Elbe. Here it flows along the spa park and proves to be the perfect kayak river. Logically, that you can rent directly kayaks and pedal boats here.

August 6, 2025,Via Scandinavica - Von Bad Bevensen nach Bienenbüttel

I liked the small fieldstone church in Wichmannsburg (the stamping point). Also worth seeing is Medensburg Monastery, although it can only be visited as part of a guided tour. This time, I was heading in the "right" direction on the pilgrimage route 🥾⛪, including a few unintentional detours and a voluntary, in my opinion worthwhile, loop to the Elbe Lateral …

Start: Bienenbüttel train station
End: Bad Bevensen train station

A varied tour through the charming Ilmenau valley. Those who want to visit the monastery must be there by 2 p.m. You can also register in advance.

There are opportunities to swim in the Ilmenau River along the way. Unfortunately, I didn't bring my swimsuit.

A fantastic, very varied tour from the Rother Hiking Guide (Around Hamburg, 4th edition). With beautiful landscapes, old buildings, and pretty villages, including the spa gardens in Bad Bevensen.

If you're lucky, you'll meet some friendly canoeists and be served a refreshing beer. If you're lucky!

I walked part of the Way of St. James "vía scandinvian" here. A nice section, but with quirks. The "last" section of this section to Medinger Kloster ran through a forest. The Way of St. James markings are showing their age and are not always easy to see. The path itself is a barely recognizable dirt track with many fallen …

My girlfriend took me to Bad Bevensen, from where I made my way to Bienenbüttel🥾🌞🥾. My route is somewhat based on @Uwe schnuppert Wanderluft 🥰's tour and …
