Thanks to the circular route signage

Schönhagen Cliffs

Highlight (Segment) • Canyon

The cliffs are changed in appearance every year by the sometimes severe storms on the Baltic Sea coast. Sometimes even the unpaved hiking or cycling paths disappear due to the strong sea.

A beautiful hike to the Schönhagen cliffs. Across the cliffs and back along the beach on the Baltic Sea. There are a lot of rocks and loose debris in places. Still recommended.
