Great gravel road on an old railway embankment from the old town of Schleswig into the countryside. The route leads far into the hinterland of the Schlei.

After the circular railway ceased operating in the 1970s, the route was converted into a cycle path. Unfortunately, the level of entertainment is not always good. Still, it's a nice route with no car traffic.

Gottorf Castle

Highlight • Castle

A beautiful castle that should be seen. A visit is highly recommended. Even as a child, I was particularly fascinated by the bog bodies and the Nydam boat.
