Cycling in Hamburg: Discover hidden routes and culture!

Summer in Hamburg invites you to explore the city and its surroundings by bike. The SPD politician Bernd Lange, 69 years old, has put together over 30 exciting bike tours to experience the north of Hamburg in a refreshing way. [t-online] reports that politics can be experienced through cycling, with each tour highlighting numerous cultural and historical highlights.

One of the easier routes leads from Barmbek-Nord to Veddel, which can be covered in about an hour. This tour begins at the tin smelter and leads past the idyllic Outer Alster, the Brückenviertel and the Old Elbe Tunnel. After 14 kilometers, cyclists reach the honey factory in Wilhelmsburg Island Park, an ideal place for a short break. Drivers also encounter spaces for thought at the Energieberg and finally at the Veddel S-Bahn station, the destination of this exciting tour.

Diverse cycle routes in the Hamburg area

In addition, Bernd Lange offers eight bike tours that lead through the surrounding area of ​​Hamburg and are often linked to innovative EU projects [komoot]. The routes include lively events such as literary readings, dance workshops and theater performances, which provide a whole new dimension of experience. A highlight of these routes leads from Hamburg to Stade, where the old town beckons with its historic buildings. The 55-kilometer path leads along the Elbe through fruit fields in the Altes Land.

The tour from Winsen/Luhe to Harburg, which covers a distance of 67.7 kilometers, offers another adventure. Here, cyclists can not only cycle in the Ilmenau-Luhe-Niederung nature reserve, but also make interesting stops, for example at the Museum im Marstall or in the Kiekeberg open-air museum.

Enjoy relaxation and nature

Hamburg also scores points with its excellent infrastructure for cyclists. If you want to venture out into nature, you will find numerous great destinations such as Klövensteen, a mixed forest west of Hamburg, or the Boberg dunes, which offer relaxation and nature experiences. Bicycle tours along the Alster or to the banks of the Elbe, for example from the fish market to Wedel, are also recommended. Here you can not only feast between journeys, but also enjoy the fresh breeze on the Elbe [szene-hamburg].

A very special tip is the marschbahndamm, which is car-free over a length of 30 kilometers and is ideal for racing cyclists. Whether in the Vier- und Marschlanden or in the Altes Land, Hamburg shows its green side and promises relaxing trips through the surrounding area.

The bike tours are designed to be versatile and accessible, so that they all begin and end at Hamburg's almost limitless local transport network.
