Elbstrand Övelgönne

Always action, one of the very worthwhile excursion destinations.

Worth a trip in any weather.

On the Elbe beach you can not only sunbathe and then relax, but also exercise various leisure activities. Locals, but also many tourists, use the kilometer-long beach on the Elbe in summer as in winter to go for a walk and to watch the huge container ships in the harbor. Sports enthusiasts can be seen here jogging or walking. At certain places on the Elbstrand it is also allowed to grill. The prerequisite for this, however, is that after grilling you make sure that no rubbish remains. But also a picnic with friends can be enjoyed on the Elbe beach of Hamburg. Near the Elbstrandes are some hotels. It is also possible to camp near the beach.
A special attraction is located directly on the Elbe beach. There lies the foundling "The Old Swede". This stone was found in 1999 during dredging on the Elbe. The big boulder is 217 tons schwer.Am Elbstrand in Hamburg, there are already on the way to see much. At the pier Neumühlen you will find the museum harbor with its impressive historic ships. The posted information boards inform the visitor about the individual ships and the history of the small port. In the vicinity you will find many charming cafes, restaurants and in summer also a beach club. In almost all cafes you can sit outside in the sun. Well-known here is, for example, the scene Café Strandperle, which is located directly on the beach. Almost immediately next to the museum harbor begins the beautiful Elbe beach.

A nice walk along the old captains houses. In good weather and on weekends so well visited that you should rather push the bike the short way.

Beautiful beach west of the ferry landing Övelgönne.

Nice spot on the Elbe beach

Nice walk, great houses!

Very nice way between Elbstrand and beautiful houses.

On sunny days, the walk from Teufelsbrück to Övelgönne is simply a good thing for many Hamburgers - especially on a Sunday. But even in winter it is not deserted here: Because on the banks of the Elbe, there are numerous restaurants, with different offers - from terrace operation to the beach bar. In Övelgönne you then stroll past some small houses and beautiful gardens that are picturesquely situated on the Elbe side. One of them is the Old Pilot's House: Dorte founded the pilotage fraternity in 1745 and a few years later became a public inn, which was only recently renewed a few years ago. The fantastic view of the Elbe beach and harbor have remained natural.
The bike has to be pushed on this particularly beautiful stretch of road. Nevertheless, it is worthwhile and thus a bike highlight. Afterwards you can drive on again.

This is a very good bike route, almost always with views of the Elbe and the huge ships. It is well worth continuing to Blankenese and in the "pontoon op'n Bulln" - pontonopnbulln.de turn off, there you sit directly on the Elbe with the view from the front row.

No special skills required

A very nice route, right along the Elbe. Enclosed you can still enjoy the Elbe beach and the hustle and bustle on the Elbe. Always worth a trip

Here there is the "Sutsche" an upscale snack bar where you can also get a delicious pizza.
