The 116-km-long Old Salt Road connects the old Hanseatic cities of Lüneburg and Lübeck. A section of this historic route runs through this area.
Where valuable salt was transported to Lübeck along sandy paths in the Middle Ages, cyclists and hikers today discover the diverse beauty of the Duchy of Lauenburg on this historic trade route.
For centuries, salt was one of the most important commodities, used as a spice and preservative, and cities like Lüneburg and Lübeck owed their power and wealth to it.
