On car-free paths to Eppendorf

From Langenhorner Chaussee we turn left after a few meters in a southerly direction directly onto Fibigerstraße and then into Kiwittsmoor (1), which immediately welcomes us with small lakes and meadows. Behind the bridge, we choose the hiking trail to the right and from then on follow the small stream Bornbach. At the motorway, we go under the bridge and 300m further turn left again onto the hiking trail. From here we follow the Bornbach first on its left side, after the retention basin on its right along trail 410. At the sight of the narrow brook, the small gardens, and cozy settlements, we soon forget that we are actually in the middle of a metropolis. After crossing Langenhorner Chaussee, we follow Buurredder for a few meters and turn left again onto the Bornbach hiking trail. After the Tarpenbeck retention basin, we are suddenly catapulted back into the big city jungle and follow a motorway-like, loop-shaped route to the tunnel, which takes us under runway no. 1. The route makes a 360° curve directly at the first left turn and runs along the Tarpenbek immediately adjacent to the airport grounds (2). Here, exciting views of departing and landing airplanes as well as the busy operation of an international airport are offered. We circle the westernmost tip of the area, turn right directly at Tarpenbek, and follow the designated hiking trail to the Alster. At Hayns Park (3), numerous leisure options are available - there are extensive meadows, swimming opportunities for children, as well as a boat rental from which you can explore Hamburg's narrow canals in an exciting way and experience the city from a completely new perspective. Crossing the Alster slightly downstream on the large road bridge and turning left onto Bebelallee, we reach the Hudtwalckerstraße subway station, where we end our tour.
