Nice route! By the way, EBO means: Elmshorn–Bad Oldesloe - also known as EBOE - or Henstedt-Ulzburg railway line – Bad Oldesloe.

From Henstedt-Ulzburg to Bad Oldesloe (almost) without road use The old EBO route runs between fields, forests and moors without major inclines. A large part of the railway cycle path is lined with fruit trees on the left and right. This cycle and hiking path is Europe's longest fruit and tree nature trail.

It's a shame that the pavilion is fenced off. I remember very well the first time I passed by here and was very impressed to find this idyllic body of water.

Overall, it's quite boring to ride because it's so long. But it's okay as a short change of pace between trails or forest paths.

The path where the marker is located is actually one of the wider paths in this part of the Barker Heide. (The photos also show the surrounding paths.)

Looking through the bend in the lovely path, you can glimpse the moorland lake. However, leaving the path is forbidden.
