We stopped off at the Forsthaus Glüsing with a group of 9 people for a delicious gourmet breakfast. Very good value for money. There was yoghurt, salmon, sausage, egg, cheese and something from the bakery for dessert. We enjoyed our breakfast on the beautiful terrace with large parasols. I can recommend the restaurant with a clear conscience.

The hiking trail "Hohes Elbufer" (W30) also runs along here, which I can highly recommend at this point. All information about the hiking trail can be found under the following link: https://wanderjugend.de/deutsche-wanderjugend/jugendwanderwege/die-jugendwanderwege/norddeutschland/hohes-elbufer (as of May 1, 2024).
