Noore – from the Danish word “Nor” – are bodies of water that are almost completely separated from the sea, except for a small access point. Accordingly, the coastal lakes feature a special mix of fresh and saltwater – a unique habitat for waterfowl. The most beautiful Noore around the Schlei are the Haddebyer Noor and the Selker Noor.

Indeed a beautiful view of the Schlei, but we had to move on quickly as there were a lot of cars driving along the Gottorfer Damm.

Maybe not a highlight, but a good tip. You walk along the coast almost exclusively through beautiful nature, but there are not that many bathing opportunities along the shore. So it's definitely worth a stop here :)
