Elbe-Havel Canal

Highlight • River

Decelerate on the Elbe Havel cycle path, at the Elbe Havel cross nature appears to be quite untouched.

Idyll on the Plauer Canal
Nice path on the Plauer Canal, at the end the Plauer lock (push your bike).
A nice view of the Wendsee and the Seegartenbrücke.

Industrial Heritage Trail Kirchmöser

Highlight • Historical Site

In Kirchmöser there were large workshops of the German Reichsbahn (DR) and the only switch factory of the DR. Worth seeing for railway nostalgia fans.

August 30, 2023,Am Elbe-Havel-Kanal und durch das 🏭 Industriedenkmal Kirchmöser ( Genthin-Wusterwitz-Plaue-Kirchmöser)

A nice, varied tour that I can recommend for cyclists who are interested in industrial culture.
a beautiful shore path,
three locks (partly no longer in operation), three restaurants, good surface of the streets and paths.
Lothar and I have already walked the industrial path on Kirchmöser extensively in winter; Today with Fanny we only drove to a few highlights …

Today we went along the Elbe-Havel Canal to Genthin to meet the white lady of the Persil watch.

Unfortunately, @Matze-Fan 🚶‍♀️🚴‍♀️ couldn't come with us. She had a pretty bad bike accident yesterday and has to take it easy for the next few days. All the best, my darling.🥰
