Hidden in the rolling hills west of Idstedt lies the Poppostein – an extended dolmen from the Neolithic period (c. 4200–1700 BC), once part of an earth-covered burial mound. Despite partial destruction, several supporting stones, a capstone, and a possible passage are still visible today. The burial chamber is surrounded by six historic boundary stones bearing the coat of arms of the Danish King Frederick VII, who acquired the site in 1859. But it's not just the Stone Age architecture that fascinates. The Poppostein is also a place of legend: Bishop Poppo is said to have baptized the famous Viking King Harald Bluetooth here – an episode deeply rooted in regional history. This king, in turn, inspired the inventors of wireless Bluetooth technology, which was named after him, around 1,000 years later. Thus, the Poppostein combines archaeological monument, spiritual symbolism, and the digital present in a unique way. The site is not directly on the hiking trail, but is easily accessible via a short footpath from the parking lot on the L317 state road – a worthwhile detour for anyone who wants to experience history. https://www.ochsenweg.de/poppostein?type=5100

The Rimmelsberg Dune is a small, seven-hectare dune area in the Schleswig-Holstein municipality of Jörl. It has been protected since 1938 under designation number 24. The nature reserve consists of undulating, hilly terrain, home to numerous juniper bushes and surrounded by oak groves. With its heaths and dunes and one of the largest juniper stands in Schleswig-Holstein, it represents a unique feature in the otherwise intensively cultivated agricultural landscape.

The nature reserve, which is only 7 hectares in size, is considered a gem. It consists of undulating terrain with numerous juniper bushes and is surrounded by oak groves. With its heaths and dunes and one of the largest juniper stands in Schleswig-Holstein, it is a special place.

The "Löwenstedter Sandberge" nature reserve represents the remainder of a formerly wide heathland with a transition to a raised moor. The heaths The Löwenstedter Sandberge nature reserve is characterized by the different growth forms of juniper. They grow scattered or in small groups in the different types of heath and grassland. The heather covers the hilltops with a pink veil in August and September. In 1977 it had almost completely disappeared due to ageing; after that it was encouraged in the southern part of the nature reserve until 1986 by temporary grazing with Heidschnucken sheep. In the northern part, parts of the area were mown with a bar mower or flail mower, and after 1991, test areas were mowed mechanically. In recent years, large areas of the heath were mowed with a brush cutter, thereby encouraging rejuvenation.
