    Eine sehr interessante Tour, bei der man viel über die Konflikte um Atomenergie erfahren kann. Der Protest dagegen hat immerhin 50 Jahre gedauert und war erfolgreich. Dadurch hat dich das Wendland komplett verändert.

    Eine sehr schöne Tour in der Elbtalaue, unbedingt empfehlenswert. Mehrere Einkehrmöglichkeiten insbesondere an der Nordseite der Elbe, einfach zu finden/ gut ausgeschildert und bequem zu fahren. Wir haben 3 Stunden reine Fahrzeit gebraucht. Jede Menge Störche zu beobachten und anschließend kann man noch in Ruhe man Hitzacker besichtigen und dort einkehren.
