Very nice cycle path along the Ilmenau. The river has largely natural banks here and leaves a picturesque impression.

One of the most traditional Bardowick clubs, the Bardowick Ilmenauschiffer Club - also known as the "Schiffergilde" - keeps the memory alive of the once heyday of Bardowick Ilmenau shipping.
