Point-to-point

Start with the S-Bahn (Stadthausbrücke station) and end at the S-Bahn (Wedel station). On the way 2 ferry trips (price included in the HVV day ticket, only the bikes have to be paid for additionally on the Cranz-Blankenese ferry). Unfortunately, the ferry to Waltershof only runs Mon-Fri and you should enquire at the Cranz-Blankenese ferry which departures are possible in terms of water levels.
