Hedge tunnel Holnis peninsula

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This section of the trail passes through dense hawthorn bushes forming an almost closed tunnel above the heads. Very pretty to look at, when the bushes are green and overgrown.

The Roikiersee was created in the 13th century. Monks from the Cistercian monastery in Glücksburg cleared a moor area here, dammed the lake and used it for fresh water supply and carp farming.

Sankelmarker Lake is a natural body of water from the last ice age, which is now fed by two streams and various springs on the banks and bottom. This constant supply of fresh water has ensured the excellent water quality of the relatively deep, clear lake in recent years. Ideal conditions for fishing at Sankelmarker Lake. Due to the extreme nutrient input from the surrounding agriculture, however, there is an increasingly explosive proliferation of phytoplankton in the summer months, which pollutes the water. It is then also not possible to swim at Sankelmarker Lake. The banks are largely covered with trees and very difficult to reach. There are jetties, but almost all of them belong to private property. There are a few free bays on the south bank. A boat can be launched here. Fishing at Sankelmarker Lake from a boat

A small tour takes you around Lake Sankelmark. Hiking tour "Water experience": The hiker is guided over 4.2 km for around 90 minutes, always directly on the water. Enjoy the special atmosphere of the lake and listen to the sound of the small waves. Seabirds can be observed with the observation telescope. The academy center is also worth a visit.

The cliffs in the west continue to change shape and color over the years. It is partially covered by vegetation. But the slanting bands of the various sand deposits can still be clearly seen... The cliffs provide living space for sand martins. But wind and waves also cause erosion of the cliff, whereupon the removed material is moved along the beach 😏...

The Roikier See (also: Roikiersee) is a forest lake that is part of the Groß-Tremmerup forest near Glücksburg (Baltic Sea). It is approximately 3.6 hectares in size and is probably the only real forest lake in the fishing region. The Roikier See was created in the 13th century from a moor area cleared by monks from the Cistercian monastery in Glücksburg at the time. The lake was used for fresh water supply and carp breeding.
