Unfortunately, it's also a road bridge with a lot of traffic.

The legendary "Blue Bridge" is one of the few ways to cross the Lachte River between Lachendorf and Lachtehausen. However, the "romantic" atmosphere is significantly diminished by traffic noise.

Deecke Heidelbeerhof – Highlight? Actually just a point on the map, but liked by a super-liker. With over 37,000 likes from a 326-time expert, it must be something really special.

No official parking lot, but a good starting point for a walk through the Schweinebruch area.

Freight trains rarely run on the line anymore. Attempts to re-establish passenger service have failed due to a lack of profitability.

A beautiful path into the Schweinebruch, initially paved, later gravelled.
