September 17, 2025,Der LandarztTörn – Radfahren am Ostseefjord Schlei

Today we're following in the footsteps of the country doctor. Yesterday we ate at the country doctor's pub (now the Hotel and Restaurant Aurora), and the regulars' table is still there. Today the tour continues past the herbal doctor Hinnerksen and on to the country doctor's house, which now houses a café. We continue along the Schlei coast to Kappeln.
