It's always impressive what engineering can achieve. Here, the Mittelland Canal simply runs along above the Elbe River.

Check the map carefully beforehand. The bike path signage is slightly misleading. Cycle at your own risk (signs apply), but it's completely easy once you've found your way. Barriers are easy to bypass.
