Hohner Lake

Highlight • Lake

The white-tailed eagle is at home here, along with several other endangered animal and plant species. Lake Hohner is part of a large and diverse nature reserve in the immediate vicinity of the Königsmoor and Hartshoper Moor.
Lake Hohner is considered the last remaining shallow-water geest lake and serves as a floodplain for the Eider-Treene-Sorge region.
It releases its water via a channel into the Sorge and then further into the Eider.
The old train station houses an interesting exhibition about the Lake Hohner biotope.

Friedrichstadt Market Square

Highlight • Settlement

Sweet, when a tourist watches the tourists. 😉
Small Amsterdam in the real north.
If you walk through the small streets and lanes or on the canals you will really remember Amsterdam. No wonder, there were also Dutch planning and building the Friechrichstadt.
The market square with its small cafes invites you to linger.
In any case, you should make a canal cruise or take the tax in your own hands. Everywhere you can rent boats, including e-boats 😉

Friedrichstadt canals

Highlight • River

The canals look like in the Netherlands and the buildings convey this impression. No wonder, since the city was built by many Dutch immigrants who were persecuted in their homeland in the 17th century because of their religion. Incidentally, the canals were all manually dug.

Highlight • Settlement

A very nice place that you should definitely see. Really reminds of the beautiful little Holland towns. The gastronomy on the market square also invites you to stop by.
