Lemwerder–Vegesack Ferry

Highlight • Bridge

During the crossing, which lasts only a few minutes, you feel for a brief moment as if you were on a real ship voyage. The costs for this are kept within limits (as of 2023) at EUR 1.90 for an adult and a bicycle. On weekdays, the ferries run every 10, 15 or 20 minutes.

Weser Side Gallery on the Weser Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

If you have a really nice headwind, the path is a sporting challenge, or if you have a tailwind, it's a great race track.... "But always pay attention to the others"!

Weser Cycle Path from Ochtum to Lemwerder

Highlight • Cycleway

Beautiful, fairly new asphalt path along the Weser. Can be walked or cycled on both sides of the dyke. With access to Altenesch.

Ochtum Flood Barrier and Lock

Highlight • Structure

The Ochtum barrage is a comparatively small barrage. That's what makes it so charming. Sometimes a mobile snack bar is also open there.

Cycle Path on the Weser Dike at Vorder- und Hinterwerder

Highlight • Cycleway

Cycle paths on the dike have the advantage that you have a good view. This makes riding a bike more fun. 😎

"... and a new day begins." I'm humming the song from the musical Cats in my mind, which I'm being played here in the pedestrian zone in Bremen on a trombone.
A street musician.
Not too far a second.
With guitar.
It's very nice here on the market in Bremen and there's always something going on at the Bremen Town …

You can also enjoy an evening after work. On March 9, 2024, to mark the opening of the cycling season, I went on a bike tour that I had already planned last year, along the Weser cycle path from work to Bremen Burg train station. But I'll get to that later on the topic of bike accessibility.

The ferry in Lemwerder is not running at the moment. This should be taken into account when planning.

June 18, 2022,Runde Lemwerder - Weser - Lankenauer Höft

In glorious summer weather, we finally (among other things) went to this wonderful section of the Weser cycle path between Bremen and Lemwerder and enjoyed the wide views and the good to very good cycle paths.

The slight headwind and headwind when cycling was very pleasant - it would have gotten too hot for us on foot in the sun.
