View of the Ilmenau River

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the bridge you have a beautiful view of the Ilmenau. I come here often on my bike tours and I like to stop here for 1-2 photos of the Ilmenau.

Ilmenau Flood Meadows near Wilschenbruch

Highlight • River

Together with the Lösegraben, the flood meadows in the Wilschenbruch absorb excess water and thus protect Lüneburg from flooding.

The Ratsmühle is in tourist hibernation, it doesn't deserve it. I rediscovered this area last year and am very impressed. Two old water towers (water art) from the middle of …

The old town is full of historic half-timbered houses with beautiful carvings, especially the Ratsapotheke on the water tower makes something and offers great views. The Abtsmühle and the Alte Kran an der Ilmenau are also worth a look.

April 23, 2023,Lüneburg - Bad Bevensen - Lüneburg

We did this bike tour and ticked it off. A highlight was the latte macchiato and the EIS in an ice cream parlor in Bad Bevensen. Otherwise a monotonous outward journey on the Elbe side canal and on the way back from Bad Bevensen to Lüneburg instead of on the Ilmenau long stretches on the Hamburg-Hanover railway line and many …

September 24, 2023,Lüneburg Revival Tour

On a spur of the moment we took the train to Lüneburg this morning to take a ride around our old hometown again. A nice feeling to be back in the area. Through the forests on the Ilmenau towards Bad Bevensen and back on the Elbe side canal. A great day in bright sunshine.

I used the great cycling weather again today for a round from Bad Bevensen to beautiful Lüneburg. I wanted to cycle right next to the Ilmenau, but the paths are very difficult to cycle. I can therefore only advise against it. The paths are very adventurous, narrow, heavily overgrown and have a lot of tree roots
(Kms 17-23).
Lüneburg is …

After we arrived home safely from Barcelona the day before yesterday, I took a day to rest yesterday. Today it was high time to get on the bike again.

Since so many new impressions have bombarded me in the last few days, my urge to explore was satisfied for the time being and I felt like I was in complete …

I was already having withdrawal symptoms.
First Corona slowed me down for a short time and then I had so many appointments both professionally and privately that I hadn't been able to go on a bike tour for over a month. An untenable situation 😱 and it was high time to slow down internally on a tour.
