Siebente Etappe

...from Hohenwarthe to Tangermünde on Sunday, April 21, 2019

After a very peaceful night right by the Elbe River and a delicious breakfast, we set off for Tangermünde.

Today we experienced everything as we rode. From a brand new bike path to very challenging terrain.

We made very good progress in the first 45 km and enjoyed the wonderful sunny weather and diverse wildlife. Some deer crossed our path and we even startled a real hare.

After a well-deserved lunch break, we wanted to take a shortcut through the Jerichower nature reserve, which led to a very exhausting detour. Just when we thought we would have to sleep in the open air, walkers came to our aid.

After an endless hour and completely exhausted, we finally arrived in Tangermünde and headed to the first visible accommodation. We were lucky again and got a nice room. After a short rest, showered and dressed for summer, we explored the beautiful old town of Tangermünde and enjoyed a delicious dinner at a Croatian restaurant. On our way back to our guesthouse, we admired the almost completely preserved city wall and the castle with its towers and city gates.

Tired and exhausted, we fell into bed.
