June 26, 2025,Hohes Elbufer – Lauenburger Altstadt Runde von Lauenburg/Elbe

A superb tour along the old town, followed by a wonderful route through beech forests.
The only drawback, as is often the case, is the cobblestones along the old town.

Small Father's Day tour with a handcart, beer and definitely without a woman! 👩🏼‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏻🍰☕️

By the way, the Elbe riverside path between Schnakenbek and Lauenburg is not recommended for cycling!!!

Morning round before the colleagues come: With the bike through the forest to Lauenburg.
The old town: great.
The cobblestones: 🤪
If you want to go downhill on cobblestones with a 15% gradient: Am Kuhgrund 🐄
