Spend the night on the Elbe dike

A private garden on the Elbe dike in the Vierlanden, Hamburg's historic vegetable garden. Not a parking space, but an overnight spot for self-sufficient travellers. In the morning, the dike, behind it the Elbe, plus wind across the flat fields. A slipway is right by the water. Local shops and a bus stop are within walking distance, as is a restaurant. Cycling and canoeing tours start from here, with Hamburg's city centre, the Elbphilharmonie and the landing bridges around 20 kilometres away. Space for little entertainment.1

Sights in the area1

Elbphilharmonie & HafenCity

The concert hall on the old Kaispeicher, with the new HafenCity district around it. The public plaza opens a full view over the harbour and Speicherstadt, a good start for a first day in town.

Altes Land

The large fruit-growing region west of the city, crossed by dikes and drainage ditches. In spring, cherry blossom time is the classic reason for a long ride into the green.

Landungsbrücken & Old Elbe Tunnel

The floating piers at Hamburg's harbour, next to the Old Elbe Tunnel running under the river. The walk to the south bank gives the familiar view back onto cranes and docks.
