The desert is located northwest of the Lübeck motorway junction of the A 1 and A20. Most of the 386 hectare site is located in the Lübeck area, a smaller part belongs to the Badendorf community (Stormarn district). 227 hectares are protected according to the EU Flora-Fauna-Habitat (FFH) directive.

Only the eastern part (near Groß Steinrade) is freely accessible to the public and has been designated a nature reserve since 1994. The rest of the training area is still used by the German army, although apparently only rarely. Units from Lübeck and Bad Segeberg used to train there, but their locations have all been closed since the 1990s. The numerous warning signs are apparently quite new and therefore still serious. The signs on both sides show the same warning, so you can never be really sure whether you are driving in or out.
