Haithabu Ramparts

Highlight (Segment) • Historical Site

The wall enclosing the old settlement of Haithabu is of impressive height and in an exceptional state of preservation. It is absolutely worthwhile to see the expanse of the landscape from above.

Boardwalk over the Selker Noor

Today, we're immersing ourselves in the realm of the Vikings. From the bus stop at the Haithabu Museum, we headed straight to the museum for a brief overview.
Then we continued on the ViaJutlandica pilgrimage route, crossing the semicircular ramparts that still stand here, from the historic Danevirke to the Great Noor.
The path to the Noor Bridge ran right …

December 14, 2025,Haitha-Bummel ums Noordoppel - Selker & Haddebyer

Around the Viking settlements near Haithabu, you can hike to two of the Schlei's inlets, with the path around the Haddebyer Noor being particularly attractive.

In another linguistic and cultural context, "Noor" means enlightenment, and we truly experience this on the magnificent forest paths above the shore and when crossing the Noor bridge twice. ☀️ 🌾

Next time I would actually do the last quarter of the loop …
