Kaltehofe-Hauptdeich Kaltehofe (formerly also Kalte Hofe) is an artificial Elbe island in the Rothenburgsort district of Hamburg that was created by river engineering works. Kaltehofe is best known as the site of the former waterworks and hygiene institute, which is now home to the Wasserkunst Elbinsel Kaltehofe Foundation.
Kaltehofe was originally located together with Peute on the left bank of the Norderelbe. Between 1875 and 1879, a cut was made between Peute and Kaltehofe in order to straighten the course of the Norderelbe. Today, the original course of the Elbe forms Billwerder Bay and the timber harbour.
An essential part of the Elbe island is the dyke facing the Elbe. The Kaltehofe main dyke stretches from the Billwerder Bucht barrier (dyke kilometre 34.1) along the entire Elbe island and becomes the Moorfleeter main dyke at dyke kilometre 32.4.

The surrounding area Many walkers are out and about on the dyke, especially when the weather is nice. Many cyclists can also be expected, as the dyke road is the ideal cycle connection from the city centre to the Vier- und Marschlande. There are car parking facilities and a bus stop on the 530 bus route nearby.

The cache Standard PET preform, no space for exchange objects.

Das war ein Drive-In und das Logbuch ist nun auch hier signiert.

Warum der hier nun zwei Tage später noch einmal gepostet wurde verstehe ich auch nicht.

An dieser Stelle meinen Vielen Dank für das Legen und Pflegen meines Caches Nummer 15638.

Heute mit Systemsprenger mal wieder Kaltehofe besucht und bevor wir unsere Falträder aus dem Auto luden, noch zu diesem neuen Tradi geschaut.
Die Dose konnten wir schnell und problemlos finden.

Danke Hamburg75 für "Kaltehofe-Hauptdeich"
