Without a sign, you wouldn't notice that you're walking into another country... It's nice how easy this can be these days.

Beautiful, free trekking spot of the "Wild Schleswig-Holstein" initiative... It is not for nothing that it is called "Mosquito Paradise"... there can be countless mosquitoes here... the spot is beautifully situated by a lake with seating area

If you want to spend the night in this beautiful idyllic place, you should definitely bring a mosquito net with you 😉 Anti-mosquito spray was even available in the hut 👍
