Trave river crossing and wooden bridge

Highlight • Bridge

This wooden bridge fits beautifully into the landscape and invites you to linger.
A few dozen meters further there is a great place to rest.

Will be difficult depending on the season. With us in July everything was overgrown and the path was not accessible.

Very nice, free bathing area on the northern shore of the Great Segeberger Lake, with great views of the Bad Segeberg skyline across the lake.

This Wednesday we ran another lap.
This time we were five men and three women.
The weather today was unfortunately quite extreme: lots of sun, hot and humid.
Nevertheless: The round was great again and you can always hike well on various variants near Bad Segeberg.

Retirees often go on vacation.🤣 So this time we (2🏃‍♀️ + 3🏃‍♂️ + 1🐕) were just a small group.

We've done the loop around the "Großer Segeberger See" several times before, but the area is always charming, and you always find a new variation.

Sometimes you get the idea for a hike from the previous hike. Recently, when I was driving through Bad Oldesloe, I saw the Nordbahn line to Neumünster and decided to hike near Bad Segeberg.

The route first went toward Möbel Kraft, and then it became very pretty. I really enjoyed hiking along the Trave River again. It's a shame there …

"Hiking like in Canada" - this is the slogan used by the tourism industry in Holstein Switzerland. A region that is in my old home and begins almost directly on my parents' doorstep. But did I really have the pleasure of growing up in a landscape like Canada as a child? To find out, I set off on one of …

The child-free time should be used. In the evening, we're going to the opera in Lübeck, and during the day, we're doing this beautiful hike around Bad Segeberg.

The trail is truly beautiful! 🥰 You always have water nearby, you walk through numerous hollow paths, insects swarm everywhere, and the birds chirp. In addition, beautiful views open up one after …

In perfect summer weather, we tackled the final loop for the Holstein Switzerland hiking badge. holsteinischeschweiz.de/tour/rundweg-segeberger-fluesse-und-seen
Contrary to the tourist office's route, we started in Klein Rönnau. The reason is simple - so we could get a fresh coffee halfway through in Bad Segeberg :-)
The trail leads through Klein Rönnau, past the watermill, and on towards Lake Ihl and …
