September 7, 2025,Blick auf die Elbe – Gierseilfähre Coswig (Anhalt) Runde von Kapen Biosphärenreservat

Today, a short Elbe circular route from Wörlitz via Wittenberg back to Wörlitz. 🫶🫶🫶We have some beautiful corners in Germany. I highly recommend this tour. Good bike paths, a whole lot of history, and with Wikana, a bit of nostalgia from the GDR era. We also did some good shopping. They still have "Kalter Hund" (cold dog), a pastry from …

This beautiful bike tour took us from Wittenberg to the Wörlitz Garden Realm.

We chose the route through the meadow landscape of the Elbe, away from the actual Elbe cycle path. Along or on the flood dams, the route led through the vast nature almost at ground level. We couldn't see the Elbe here, but there were enchanted trees, wide …
