Wooden Bridge Over the Lanker See

The Schwentine spreads out into several lakes in this region. There are few direct paths along Lake Lanker, and you often see the lake from a distance. At Preetz there is a beautiful vantage point of the lake landscape and the Schwentine, which connects the two lakes.

From here you have a beautiful view over the Kirchsee, an upwelling of the Schwentine, in which the opposite bank is often reflected. Lake Lanker begins south of the bridge.

Right at the junction of Lake Kirchsee and Lake Lanker, through which the Schwentine River flows on its way from the Bungsberg to its mouth in the Kiel Fjord, there is a bridge and a small bay in front of it with sun loungers and benches for relaxing. From there, you have a view over Lake Kirchsee all the way to the town church.The bridge leads to the other shore, where you can continue walking along Lake Kirchsee to the town church.There are also hiking and cycling trails that continue to the Lanker See swimming pool or along the Schuster Acht.It is also possible to climb the Wehrberg, which houses a memorial to those killed in World War I.
