The most beautiful view is from the Neustadt and the banks of the Elbe, especially in the evening when it is dark and Dresden is lit up.

June 13, 2023,Tour zu den Mohnfeldern

Today it should go on the Elbradweg to Niederwartha, past meadows and fields to see the blooming poppies. Was a small, fine tour. Birds chirping, the scent of flowering hedges and all sorts of wonderfully fragrant plants made cycling on the moderately busy cycle path pleasant. We will definitely repeat the round.

The water has fallen; some sections of the Elbe cycle path can be cycled again, some still muddy, some still flooded; Depending on whether we were through the water or outside... over time we became more and more courageous, until …

A small errand on the way turned into a lovely little bike ride 🚴 to Altkötschenbroda 🤩, very quiet and relaxed, with a bit of a cooling headwind 😅 and a tailwind coming back, just ideal. In Altkö we had a little refreshment in the form of ☕🧇🍦, everything was very tasty 😋. It was just a lovely day 🤩.

Just “around the Elbe” in this nice weather...
The “highlight” should be the Niederwartha bridge with a snack bar on the left or right side of the Elbe. But unfortunately both locations were closed 😭
Neither “Velo Verde” nor the “Fährhaus Niederwartha” were open.
The latter is probably completely closed at the moment.. sad 😢
There was rescue in the …

...the Arzgebirge native would say.
Accompanied my dear wife for a while on her way to work, who then drove on to Elsterwerda👍. Thanks again to Mr. Weselsky. The private railway company ODEG then runs in Elsterwerda. RAILWAY adventure 🤷‍♂️
On the way home I met my cousin in Niedergohlis, who was also riding his bike.
