Beautiful place that invites you to linger. Simply pause for a moment and enjoy the winding path through truly beautiful nature. We took our time and were able to discover a lot.

Indeed, despite my grandparents' house in the Bay of Lübeck, I have only now "discovered" this nature reserve. Great. In summer, besides many animals, you will also find plenty of plants like wild thyme – partly in large quantities. It smells fantastic.

This area here is truly a beautiful, untouched, and peaceful place. It's almost a shame to cycle there, as you're almost too fast to truly enjoy the beauty. Yes, you can cycle, but my tip: Go on foot. Walking along the Trave and observing the flora and fauna can almost only be done on foot. For me, the path along there is unfortunately also associated with the memory that on the other side of the Trave, "German soldiers" of the border troops had to watch "German citizens" to prevent them from "escaping" to Germany. The only good thing about it is that nature could develop completely without hustle and bustle because of it.
