Reviews
Magdeburg water bridge is one of the top tourist attraction spot which is just located outside of city but there is a highway links to Berlin. You can access the bridge on foot or by bicycle. It’s quite long and accessible from both side. The scenic beauty of the river over river something mesmeric. The bridge is a great example of Mechanical Engineering. There is a option of enjoying the sights by reserving cruize.
Another feat of human engineering. There's free parking available on the east of the river Elbe, on the southern part, and it's a short walk away to the bridge itself. The bridge has wide footpaths for walking and cycling along the water bridge. Also worth going under the bridge and admire the construction.
Great destination near Magdeburg. Perfect for walking or cycling.
The canal bridge is easily accessible by bike. You can cycle along a beautiful path which leads you through forests and fields along the river for about 10-15km.
There is also adjacent parking for those who prefer to come by car.
The Magdeburg Water Bridge is a notable piece of architecture which made it worth visiting.
Not much to do here, but as a bike trip destination - perfect. Don't forget to grab a Jacket, it's quite windy and chilled anytime of the year
A great place to visit, loved it
A interesting water canal with a couple of locks. You can take a canal boat there for sightseeing.
This is an amazing engineering feat. It is a wonderful walk and place to enjoy the view and marvel at what was built.
