Barkassentour "Rund Wilhelmsburg" mit Hafenschnackerin Maike Brunk
- Boat Trips
With the barge once around the island
Discover the diversity of Europe's largest river island from the water. Harbor chatterer Maike Brunk will show you idyllic nature reserves, unique tidal floodplains, all of Hamburg's Elbe bridges, and, to finish, a bit of port industry. We'll sail along the Norder- and Süderelbe rivers and circle Hamburg's smallest lighthouse at Bunthäuser Spitze.
We sail past the Elbphilharmonie and along the impressive backdrop of HafenCity to the Elbe bridges. Here we pass the Elbe islands of Entenwerder and Kaltehofe, as well as the industrially dominated Peute. After crossing under the A1 Elbe bridge at the level of Billwerder Island, the junction with the Doven Elbe towards the Tatenberger Lock opens up. Beyond this, the dikes of the Vierlande and Marschlande stretch out. On the western side, lush green nature reserves predominate, such as Kreetsand, and later in the tour, the tidal forests of Heuckenlock.
We circle the Bunthäuser Spitze and the rural area of Moorwerder, pass under the Harburg Elbe bridges, and pass the four Harburg seaports. Passing under the Kattwyk bridges, we reach the Köhlbrand at the Altenwerder container terminal. After passing under the Köhlbrand bridge, we return to the more familiar port area with its container and cruise ship terminals, the Blohm + Voss docks, and the landing stages, before sailing back to the starting point.
