キューレン周辺のおすすめファミリーハイキング＆ウォーキング

Besides the love locks, the panoramic view over the Lanker See, framed by reeds, is worthwhile.

From the bridge, one has a magnificent view over the Kirchsee on one side and the Lanker See on the other... Behind the Kirchsee, the church tower of the town church rises, visible from afar.

Lake Lanker is a lake in Holstein Switzerland. It lies south of the town of Preetz in the Plön district and is crossed by the Schwentine River from south to north. Lake Lanker is particularly distinguished by its numerous bays. Almost the entire western area, from the lakeshore to the Preetz-Ascheberg railway line, is a nature reserve.

The 79-hectare "Kührener Teich and Surroundings" nature reserve, designated in 1994, lies directly south of the 207-hectare "Peninsulas and Bays in Lake Lanker" nature reserve, separated by the railway embankment. This protection safeguards two nationally important breeding, resting, and feeding areas for endangered and rare bird species, as well as for the rare fire-bellied toad. The core of the nature reserve is the 40-hectare fish pond, which is on average only half a meter deep and drains into Lake Lanker via a dam on the northern edge. North of the path, which runs along a narrow ridge, a species-rich, wet lowland area extends to the railway embankment. The natural water balance has been restored through damming. Large bodies of water occasionally extend here. The area is part of the European ecological network "Natura 2000" (protected habitat area and bird sanctuary). Pond management

This bridge crosses the Schwentine River, which flows from Lake Lanker to Lake Kirchsee. From here, I have a view of Lake Kirchsee all the way to the town church and, on the other side, towards Lake Lanker. From here, you can observe various water sports enthusiasts, as well as geese, seagulls, and ducks. The Way of St. James, the E1, and the Schuster Acht all run along here.

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.

Following a design by Rudolph Matthias Dallin from 1720, the church was built in its current form in the 18th century. However, its origins date back to the 12th century. During the last renovation from 1938 to 1941, the original choir was separated from the nave by a wall, allowing it to be used separately as a "small church."

A visit to the church is worthwhile. Also visit the chapel behind the altar. We were lucky enough to have a pianist playing in the empty church. I read on a flyer that there was "market music." Maybe Google it before planning your trip.
