Description
The Nordseeküsten-Radweg is a fairly new long-distance cycle route of over 550 kilometers. This route takes you through no less than six German states along the coast of the North Sea. You cycle from Hamburg all the way to the border of Lower Saxony with Groningen. A route for the avid cyclist who is not afraid of a long multi-day trip.
Seaside resorts and ports
The starting point of this route is at Finkenwerder, a former island in the Elbe that is now part of the city of Hamburg. From here you cycle along the course of the Elbe to the North Sea. On the rest of the route you can get a breath of fresh air along the North Sea coast. You cycle through beautiful quiet nature reserves and through various seaside resorts and harbor towns. How about Bremerhaven, for example, where you can visit the German Maritime Museum? You can make a stopover on the beach in the seaside resorts of Wremen, Dorum and on the beach at the Dorumer Diep.
The Wadden Sea as World Heritage
On the last part of the route you cycle along the Lower Saxon Wadden Sea National Park. This park has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 2009. You end your trip just across the border in the Dutch village of Bad Nieuweschans.
Castle of Jever
Jever Castle is a true gem on this route. This castle dates back to the 14th century, although it has been renovated several times over the centuries. For example, the imposing tower of the castle was built in the course of the 15th and 16th centuries. In the 19th century, the castle was used as a secondary residence for the Dukes of Oldenburg. Since 1921 there is a museum in the castle.
