Exploring Hamburg

At Rothenburgsort the Bille river flows into the Elbe river, which is why there is a lot of private boat traffic. The numerous small garden clubs on Billenhuder Insel - if they have access to the Bille - almost always have a jetty and often motorboats.

The north of Rothenburgsort has large areas of industrial and commercial properties. South of the Billekanal the industrial and commercial area continues and is traversed by large track systems.

South of the tracks there are some residential areas. The landmark of Rothenburgsort can also be seen from here: the 64 meter high water tower on the grounds of the waterworks.

There are some beautiful green areas in Elbpark Entenwerder and the Billwerder Buch leads to the Elbinsel Kaltehofe, where a Museum of Water Art is located. Further south there is a protected freshwater cove in the Holzhafen. This was created as an equalization area for other areas.
