Wakenitz Nature Reserve

The Drägerweg is a consistently made since 2007 trail between Lübeck and Rothenhusen.

The trail runs almost parallel to the Wakenitz, but has little contact with the river in the southern part. Between the jetties Moltke bridge in Lübeck and Rothenhusen on Ratzeburger lake the path length is about 18 km. The waterway, used by the Wakenitz boat, is about 14 km long.

The name refers to the former Lübeck manufacturer Heinrich Dräger, whose foundation has contributed organisationally and financially. Further funding was provided from the A 20 motorway project.

A really nice way along the Wankensitz by the nature reserve. Well-developed paths.

Great way from Rothenhusen to Lübeck. Turn to wakenitz possible.
