Neustadt in Holstein Municipal Harbor

Highlight • Structure

As if strung on a string of pearls, the jetties stretch along the lower Jungfernstieg for hundreds of meters. If you like boats and harbor cinema, you will not want to leave here.

Cliff Coast Near Rettin

Highlight • Gorge

In addition to the steep bank itself, the view across the bay to the Mecklenburg coast from here is very attractive and more productive than from the deeper Lübeck Bay (e.g. Scharbeutz).

View of the Baltic Sea

Highlight • Viewpoint

Actually you are not allowed to ride a bike here. But if you do not drive so fast and are nice to the people then nobody says anything. Then you have a breathtaking view from there.

1st stage of the Baltic Sea tour. Mostly along the water in great weather!

The adventure began early in the morning, right on Timmendorfer Strand. The sun was already glinting over the water, and the Baltic Sea breeze was fresh – perfect conditions for a coastal tour. We set off north along the edge of the waves, stopping for short breaks at the most beautiful viewpoints between Scharbeutz and Neustadt.

The cliff path to Pelzerhaken will not be for everyone.
2 or 3 passages are very difficult.

July 21, 2023,Travemünde - Grömitz - Neustadt

From Hamburg to Travemünde via Lübeck Hbf by bike on the train, thanks to the Deutschlandticket + bike day pass from nah.sh. From Travemünde, always as close as possible along the shore of the bay, I wanted to see how far I could get. After Sierksdorf I discovered some places that were still unknown to me. I found the route …

Baltic Sea Cycle Route 🌊 - Part 1 - Starting in Ibbenbüren with the DB via Hamburg to Travemünde Beach - that went really well 👍. All the bikes were loaded into the RE compartment and then onto the reserved seats on the ICE. From Travemünde, we then cycled along the beautiful Baltic Sea 🌊...to Grömitz.

Today I cycled from Grömitz (it feels like 40 years since I was last here) to Travemünde. From Grömitz to Pelzerhagen, the route followed gravel roads along the coast. Unfortunately, Komoot crashed here. Even before Travemünde, Komoot wasn't working properly 🤷🏻‍♂️. Well, the return trip was recorded well. At least three-quarters of the way back was without batteries. I forgot …

September 16, 2025,Tag 11/15_von Grömitz nach Travemünde

♥︎Grömitz... the day started gray... very gray.

Today it caught up with me... rain... I decided to have a more extensive breakfast and start later... it should get better around 10:00 a.m.

Meanwhile, I shortened the route... the rain was easing a bit... I started at 10:30 a.m.
