Wonderfully quiet area for cycling. You can really enjoy nature. Although sometimes the tree roots under the asphalt make themselves felt. Of course, only for short sections

The bridge is currently not passable: Information from the train to the Lindaunisbrücke: The bridge has been closed to passers-by since March 6, 2023. In the period that follows, we dismantle the folding part and set up the temporary bridge for pedestrians and cyclists. It is planned to complete this work in Dec. 2023. Pedestrians and cyclists can then cross the bridge if they push. https://www.deutschebahn.com/de/presse/presse-regional/pr-hamburg-de/aktuell/presseinformationen-regional/Lindaunis-Fussgaengerbruecke-ueber-die-Schlei-eroeffnet-zum- Jahresende--11143750#
