Old Elbe

Highlight • River

There is a lot to discover on the Old Elbe, the Old Ferry used to be a nice place to stop and get some refreshment, but that was once upon a time, what a pity😔

Regardless of whether it is flood, snow, rain or sun. You can always go back there. There is also a park bench and an information board where you can relax. 👍

March 13, 2022,Bei einer kleinen Tour noch schön die Sonne genießen.🚴‍♀️🌞😊🙋‍♀️

The sun is shining so beautifully that we just had to get back on our bikes and do a little lap. It was nice, but quite windy today.
It doesn't matter, the main thing is in the fresh air.😀🙋‍♀️

Today it was so wonderfully sunny, warm and calm that we put the bikes under strain again. It was a nice tour through the gradually autumnal colorful nature
Have a nice evening everyone

Small Saturday morning round to get a stamp in the “Salzland Culture Stamp” stamp book. The round was planned for Friday after work, but it rained again.

September 3, 2023,Mal wieder ein bisschen über Elbe radeln 🚴‍♀️🌞

It was so sunny that we just had to cycle a bit more. The best way to do this is along the Elbe. The meadows are so beautifully lush green. We went on the planetary cycle path again. It was a nice tour.👍🚴‍♀️🌞🙋‍♀️

December 28, 2023,Radtour zur Öffnung des Pretziener Wehres wegen Hochwasser🚴‍♀️

The weather is sunny and mild, so get on your bike and head to Pretzien. Today the Pretziener Weir is being built to protect Magdeburg and Schönebeck from flooding.
A lot of people don't want to miss this event and neither do we. It was a nice tour.👍😊

That should actually be a run. A blue toe (still) had something against it. So my beloved bike stayed, for some exercise. 😄
