From Henstedt-Ulzburg to Bad Oldesloe (almost) without road use The old EBO route runs between fields, forests and moors without major inclines. A large part of the railway cycle path is lined with fruit trees on the left and right. This cycle and hiking path is Europe's longest fruit and tree nature trail.

Worth a small look. In the vicinity, there is a disused train that apparently graffiti artists are allowed to use. ;)

Overall, it's quite boring to ride because it's so long. But it's okay as a short change of pace between trails or forest paths.
