Maurizio Nannucci's light artwork can be admired at dusk or at night. Near the cathedral, I was greeted by the glowing blue lettering "From so far to here." On the other side, in red, "Even much further from here" is written.

The cycle path is very narrow and sometimes a bit difficult to navigate on a road bike due to roots and slight ruts. Always ride slowly here. A gravel bike is actually much better here.

A lovely place to stop for a while along the Elbe River. Several benches with views of the Elbe are available.

Good connection along the road. But be careful, the path isn't perfect in every area due to roots. Only conditionally recommended for road bikes.

A lovely spot for a photo or a short break by the Elbe. Whether cycling or hiking.
