August 6, 2024,Runde von Boizenburg/Elbe auf dem Elbradweg 😀
Since I had business in that area, I booked a hotel room at short notice and took my bike with me.
Beautiful route along the Elbe. The paths to Hitzacker were very beautiful. The little ferry to Hitzacker was great. Small but nice. Cost of the crossing: €2.50 for the bike and €2 for me, so €4.50. I think that's …

Driven by car and 2 bicycles to Bleckeder Hafen. Unloaded and immediately got cravings for fish rolls ... we wanted to satisfy that in the bistro "Am Bleckeder Hafen". The fish roll then had a height of approx. 12 cm, so that even a crocodile would have a mouth lock🙄. Well, the part dismantled, then it went ... with the …

Start and finish: Bleckede car park at the town hall,
from here to the ferry dock, take the ferry
to Neu Bleckede and then continue mostly on the dike on a wide concrete track with a wonderful view of the Elbe.
Past Darchau to the ferry to Hitzacker.
Great route, easy to ride, great view.
The only disadvantage: headwind the …

Today was the day of our return journey.
First we took the ferry across the Elbe, then we cycled along and on the dyke with a great view.

Today we went from our base camp near Radegast to Bleckede, where we took the ferry across. We wanted to go to Hitzacker and then return on the other side of the Elbe.
This was already apparent during the planning phase, and it was confirmed during the ride. The eastern side of the Elbe was more beautiful in this section, …

In beautiful summer weather, we set off today on our e-bikes to Hitzacker. The starting point is at the campsite on the "West German" side. In Bleckede, we crossed the Elbe on a small car ferry for a total of €5 and arrived on the "East German" side. From there, we continued along the Elbe dam for about 35 km... …
