Coming from Walternienburg, shortly before the Barby ferry, I chose the cycle path through Elbauen to Dornburg, which was signposted as an alternative route. The double-track path made of concrete drives very well.

Pretzien Weir

Highlight • Monument

Regardless of whether it is flood, snow, rain or sun. You can always go back there. There is also a park bench and an information board where you can relax. 👍

Half-timbered houses on the Elbe Cycle Path

Highlight • Historical Site

Idyllic half-timbered row houses directly on the banks of the Elbe. There is also a place to stop for a bite to eat, perfect for a short break.
