Wildflowers on the banks of the Elbe River
A few wildflowers on the banks of the Elbe River on a groyne head near Hitzacker.

Weinberg stairs towards the Elbe
The vinyard hill ‘Weinberg’ offers various great views of Hitzacker, the Elbe River and the vastness of the meadows on the east side of the Elbe River, at least when the trees on the Weinberg have no or only few leaves.
The paths of ascent and descent that the Weinberg offers one are similarly varied. This is one with a view of the river Elbe. From the stairs on the northwest side, you have a great view of the Elbe and the Elbe meadows offshore, as well as a ‘dead’ arm of the Elbe that, depending on the water level, could of course have once been an offshoot of the river Jeetzel.
Hitzacker, Elbe, Jeetzel (seen from the Weinberg)
A very typical view of the island town between Elbe and Jeetzel is the vineyard perspective: Hitzacker from above – seen from the vineyard. On the left of the picture is the Elbe, in the foreground the Jeetzel – in the middle the old town of Hitzacker.
Jeetzel, Hiddos Arche Hitzacker

Blue Wooden House, Red Wine
A walk Am Langenberg – at the very top there is a roundabout and a blue wooden house – and in October the wine glows red.
Hitzacker: Buoy at the mouth of Elbe-Jeetzel
Hitzacker is located where the Jeetzel flows into the Elbe. And at the very tip of the headland that separates the Jeetzel and the Elbe, you can find this buoy. A quite popular photo motif.
