The panoramic view at sunset or sunrise is highly recommended. The view of the most varied colors cannot be described and is also difficult to capture in photos. Also beautiful is the view of the lighthouse in the fairway, which is then easily recognizable by its green light.

From this spot, you have a great view of the Kiel Bay. Whether with the naked eye, with a coin-operated telescope, or with binoculars, you can observe the ships sailing towards Kiel or vice versa into the fjord. Behind you stands the lighthouse, offering a beautiful photo opportunity, or the view of the Naval Memorial in Laboe. It is particularly special during Kiel Week when the sailing ships pass by.

Today the railway line is rarely used by industrial rail traffic... the hiking trail runs directly alongside the track... If you're lucky, a train might just happen to pass by.

From the headland by the lighthouse, you have a magnificent view into the Kiel Fjord... there's always something going on on the water: huge cruise ships, small sailboats and water sports enthusiasts.

A beautiful spot, definitely worth a visit. The wind here on the coast always brings a fresh breeze. But beware: risk of sunburn ;)

The railway line has no scheduled service. But occasionally, the railway still passes through here. These are locomotives traveling to the shipyards, the military base, or the MAK.
