The Elbe meadows in this region score points with a particularly species-rich natural and cultural landscape. The best thing to do is jump on your bike and explore the extensive meadows in a relaxed manner on two wheels.

Elbe Riverside Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

You should avoid this section! There, the miserable cobblestone pavement continues from the southeastern section. Use the left way, he is in a much better condition!
