STEILKÜSTE HÖHE STOHL IS GETTING MORE DISGUSTING!!! (The fenced-in area). You have to hold onto barbed wire now. So better without children, animals, fat e-bikes and the like. No idea why the farmer can't give up a meter.

From the headland by the lighthouse, you have a magnificent view into the Kiel Fjord... there's always something going on on the water: huge cruise ships, small sailboats and water sports enthusiasts.

The cattle are not always visible; they have a great area where they can retreat.
