Weser Cycle Route, 8th stage: From Nordenham/Bremerhaven to Cuxhaven

Nordenham/Bremerhaven → Cuxhaven

The final stage of the Weser Cycle Route leads you along the North German dike landscapes and always parallel to the Weser River. From Wremen onwards begins the official estuary area of the Weser into the North Sea. Along the route are the idyllic cutter harbors of the Wurster North Sea Coast, the Wernerwald nature reserve, and finally the North Sea spa town of Cuxhaven. The official end of the route is reached at the northernmost point of Lower Saxony, at the height of the Kugelbake in Cuxhaven. From the dike, you can let your gaze wander over the UNESCO World Natural Heritage Wadden Sea and the world shipping route Elbe.
