The trail is very nice.
Very fun to drive.

Were there today, unfortunately it looks more deserted and wild. Does anyone know who maintains this beautiful trail? We will definitely go there sometime.

The city park in Norderstedt is very beautiful. There is a wakeboard facility, many playgrounds and catering options. Many events also take place: I have enjoyed food truck festivals, craft beer days, magic shows and other highlights here. Nice!

The way is very beautiful. But I wouldn't drive it. The roots are damaged and thus the trees around them. Beautiful to slide through.

The Wittmoor concentration camp memorial is also located in this section. You can also take the footpath into the moor. Cycling is not allowed on this, that is, you would have to push.
