Call barrier at the railway crossing in Hamburg

Highlight • Structure

A little bizarre that not everyone knows how to deal with! Today I had to point out to someone that they have to say "Open sesame"!
So: press the button, ask for the barrier to be opened (even if it is already open), cross and on the other side tell you that you are no longer doing gymnastics on the rails

The Höltigbaum is crossed by the Wandse, a tributary of the Alster. The Wandse also forms the border between Hamburg and Schleswig-Holstein. Since the original source was diverted, the Wandse is now fed exclusively by the low water in the vicinity. The Wandse in the Höltigbaum therefore only carries water from time to time and usually dries up as early as May. Only after the confluence of the Stellmoor spring river does the Wandse change into a steadily flowing river.

This is the highlight of the "Gravelautobahn Höltigbaum," a long path parallel to the main road through the forest. It's a much nicer ride than the bike path to Rahlstedt.
I highly recommend it, because riding right next to the road is no fun at all! Here, however, it is.

Glinde–Trittau Rail Trail

Highlight • Cycleway

The cycle path is a good starting point for MTB excursions, if you turn from here to Mönchsteich, for example.
Or drifting away in other ways into more mountain bike-heavy areas.
For all other cyclists, the cycle path is of course a pleasure! Relaxed cycling off the road!

Glinde–Trittau Rail Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The cycle path was probably in top shape at one time, but at the moment it is difficult to ride even with a gravel bike.
Some of my friends now avoid the route.

Friederici Park, Glinde

Highlight (Segment) • Natural

In the Friederici Park, which is criss-crossed by hiking trails and ponds, you can relax and cycle along the Glinder Au and at the mill pond through the beautiful park.

Theodor-Wulff Hill

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Theodor-Wulff-Höhe is a real Eldorado for mountain bikers. Even professionals get their money's worth here with a guaranteed fun factor. From the 55 m high "summit" you have great views of the surrounding country and the skyline of Hamburg.

Wandseteich Pond

Highlight • Lake

The "Wandseteich" is a retention basin and the largest body of water in the Stellmoorer Tunneltal. The Wandse dam, built in the 1950s, dams the irregular water loads of the small river and releases them only slowly into the lower reaches. In this way, it carries water for longer than under natural conditions. The disadvantage of the retention basin: its water heats up considerably, which makes life difficult for typical flowing water creatures in the lower reaches.
The Höltigbaum is traversed by the Wandse, a tributary of the Alster.
Since the original source was diverted, the Wandse is now fed exclusively by the low water from the surrounding area. The Wandse therefore only carries water in the Höltigbaum temporarily during the year and usually dries up as early as May. Only after the confluence with the Stellmoorer Quellfluss does the Wandse turn into a constantly flowing watercourse.
