There is a lot of reed on this side of the shore... if it is not too high, you have a beautiful view over the entire length of Lake Eutin.

Near the reflecting ponds... While the parents enjoy the atmosphere of the ponds, the children can let off steam here.

Here, you'll find a 700-meter-long, enchanting singletrack trail through the forest. It climbs quite steeply on a hillside, crossing a slope covered in horsetail and giant ancient firs that stand quite unexpectedly by the water.

A historic park in the style of an English landscape garden, bordering Eutin Castle. The garden's earliest origins date back to around 1500. From 1716 onward, a luxurious French Baroque garden was created, in keeping with the spirit of the times. However, just 60 years later, work began on its fundamental redesign and expansion into what was then a fashionable English landscape garden, featuring numerous special trees from all over the world, winding paths, small temples, a waterfall, a Chinese bridge, and romantic views of the lake. It has remained almost unchanged to this day, except that the trees have since grown into magnificent giants. The Ducal Garden has been open to the public for almost 200 years. Also located within the garden is a separate kitchen garden with an orangery, a New Zealand House, a display kitchen, and various beautifully maintained plantings (medicinal herbs, heirloom varieties, vines, kettle trees). The garden is now a listed monument as one of Northern Germany's most important works of garden art. It was extensively renovated in 2015. Learn about the philosophy behind this many-hectare, listed gem, its botanical features, what a kitchen garden is all about, and much more on a guided tour offered by the Eutin Tourist Information Center. Numerous educational programs for children are also held here.
