Point to point

Start with the S-Bahn (station Stadthausbrücke) and end also at the S-Bahn (station Wedel). 2 ferry trips en route (price included in the HVV day ticket, only the bikes have to be paid for on the Cranz-Blankenese ferry) The ferry to Waltershof unfortunately only runs Mon-Fri and with the Cranz-Blankenese ferry you should inquire which departures are possible with regard to the water levels.
