Schwentine Water Trail
The Schwentine River connects numerous lakes in Holstein Switzerland over a distance of 62 kilometers.


At 62 kilometers, the Schwentine is one of the longest rivers in Schleswig-Holstein and is a popular water trail for canoeists and paddlers. It rises at the foot of the Bungsberg mountain near Schönwalde/Ostholstein and flows into the Baltic Sea near Kiel. Known as the "Holy River" by the Slavs, it was formed from the meltwater of the last Ice Age. On its way through Holstein Switzerland, it connects 16 natural lakes and one reservoir. The most famous lakes include the Großer Eutiner See, Kellersee, Dieksee, Behler See, Großer & Kleiner Plöner See, and Lanker See.

Numerous native animal species feel at home along the rivers and lakes. Among the rarest specimens are the kingfisher, bittern, otter, and white-tailed eagle. But amphibians such as fire-bellied toads and moor frogs also frolic in the wet banks of the Schwentine.

Kellersee borders Malente to the east. It has a total area of approximately 50.6 hectares and a maximum depth of approximately 27 meters. A 14.6 km hiking trail surrounds the lake, including several highlights along the way. These include, for example, the "WunderWeltWasser" nature trail for all ages and the Rothensande estate, the original setting for the Immenhof films. Kellersee can be explored by both excursion boats and sailboats. Canoe trips from Eutin-Fissau are also possible, and there is also a swimming area here. Other swimming areas can be found in Wöbbensredder or at Hamburger Strand in Sielbeck. The swimming areas in Sielbeck and Fissau are unguarded. Anglers also have plenty of opportunities here, as the lake has a good population of zander, pike, and sea bass. Numerous waterfowl can also be observed here.

This lake also offers great opportunities for anglers. You can catch eels, perch, bream, pike, tench, zander, carp, and others 🐟

Hamburger Beach (Kellersee)

Highlight • Beach

The bathing area with a sandy beach on Lake Kellersee between Sielbeck and Fissau in Eutin.

The Hamburger Strand bathing area is the perfect place to cool off, far from the hustle and bustle of Lake Kellersee. The natural bathing beach is only accessible via the hiking and cycling path between the Eutin districts of Fissau and Sielbeck, making it an ideal place for a break during a hike or bike ride.

A very beautiful route. It runs almost entirely along the water. There are only two steep climbs. You'll need to push on one of them. The main road is very limited.

Wonderful bike tour on natural paths along a wide variety of lakes, streams and bodies of water. The highlight of the tour was the break with delicious fish rolls and sheet cakes in the Seehütte on the Kellersee.

Took a relaxed tour around the Eutin and Kellersee. Super varied through Eutin, Malente, other built-up areas and great forests. Some places are also ideal for swimming.

I think that this round is very popular and therefore heavily frequented. Always on the water, always a great view and not demanding. So during the week in spring there are no leaves blocking the free view of the lake... the soul rejoices, plus sunshine and hardly any wind. 🤗👍
I like to complain, but I can only rave about …

Always nice to drive around the Kellersee in the sunshine.

It wasn't as warm on the bike as I thought it would be, and I ended up returning frozen stiff and with clammy fingers; I wasn't dressed warmly enough, and I really needed gloves.

The start of our tour today was the castle in Eutin. Here we treated ourselves to a guided tour called Strong Women. As a man, I can highly recommend this tour.
The tour around the Kellersee has a lot to offer. Among other things, today we experienced Holstein Switzerland from its Swiss side. In addition to the ups and downs, …

Very nice tour around the Kellersee to Eutin Castle. Rest in the courtyard. Hiked through the very beautiful castle park and Eutin and then back past the Immenhof to complete the rest of the Kellersee tour and on to the boathouse at Dieksee (it is important to make a reservation by phone!). At the end of the day we enjoyed …
