Very nice view and 2 small climbs

A wonderful descent towards Zarpen. It starts off rather gently and then becomes increasingly steeper. Certainly not easy, at least by northern German standards.

It's very easy to ride (in both directions) on a road bike. Even during the holiday season, there's relatively little traffic.

Today a hotel, formerly a huge farm complex.

Unfortunately, the now visible part of the Kalkberg is only a sad remnant of the once imposing hill, upon which once stood one of the few hilltop castles in Northern Germany. How different would the town's (tourist) development have been if there had been no intensive limestone mining and gypsum extraction, no Thingstätte (place of worship), and no Karl May Festival? A local historian and Hamburg's Hafencity University have undertaken a joint project on the Kalkberg and the Siegesburg castle on it, taking a virtual journey back in time to the era before both disappeared. A foretaste of the impressive result of this collaboration can be seen here: https://www.kreismuseum-segeberg.de/se1644/.

Beautiful, secluded route, but lots of uphill and downhill. Easy to manage with an e-bike or if you're fit.

This view of Lübeck is on the road from Pöhls to Heilshoop. There we stand on a ridge of a terminal moraine that frames the Lübeck depression. This ridge runs on a line Heilshoop, Zarpen, Reinfeld and reaches a height of around 70m at Zarpen. The Lübeck depression is a good 60m lower. This means that in many places - provided the weather is favorable - we have a good view of Lübeck with its famous silhouette.
