Weser cycle path, 7th stage: From Bremen to Nordenham/Bremerhaven

Bremen → Nordenham/Bremerhaven

From Bremen's Weser promenade, cycle past the Beck & Co brewery, along the Neustädter harbor, and over the Ochtum flood barrier into the Wesermarsch, one of the largest contiguous grassland regions in Europe. Between Lemwerder and Berne, the influence of traditional shipyards prevails. Cyclists on the Weser cycle path reach the seafaring town of Elsfleth via the Hunte bridge. Further north in the port city of Brake, you immerse yourself in the significant maritime past. From Brake, follow the heavily raised dyke to Rodenkirchen, where a look into St. Matthew's Church is worthwhile. Upon arrival at the train station in Nordenham, a detour to the pedestrian zone is recommended before you take the ferry from the district of Blexen to the other Weser side.
