FeRo had really terrible weather conditions and still made a recommendation. And rightly so! I was there in September 2024 and had fantastic and sunny early autumn weather - pure enjoyment. My route recommendations away from the straight "forest highways": Bodener Zuschlag https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/7009315 Labenzer Zuschlag https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/6596457 Schürensöhler Zuschlag https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/7006683

It is the picturesque Wehrenteich, which is fed by the Wehrenbek. It is now a refuge for water birds and amphibians. It is completely surrounded by forest and is only accessible to visitors at this one point.

The paved path leads to the former Treuholz train station. This station was located on the so-called Kaiserbahn (Emperor's Railway), a single-track railway line from Bad Oldesloe via Ratzeburg to Hagenow-Land in Mecklenburg. The line was opened in 1897 and is said to have been built at the behest of Kaiser Wilhelm II, who wanted a shorter route for his travels from Berlin to the naval base in Kiel than the one via Lübeck or Hamburg. With the redrawing of borders after the Second World War, the line was severed and became obsolete. Passenger service was discontinued in 1962, and freight traffic (primarily sugar beets) ceased in 1971. The railway embankment was soon removed, so that the route can now only be discerned by occasional bends in the track. A section between Siebenbäumen and Berkenthin still serves as a cycle path.

The paved path is the historic access route to the train station. The red brick building with 3 windows per floor is the former train station building. You stand there on the side of the building facing away from the former track; the "Treuholz" station sign was probably moved to the other side at some point. The other red brick building with 5 windows in a row was once the residential building of the "railway officials". The green strip with wild vegetation that you can see from the street to the south of the buildings still marks a small piece of the railway embankment; everything on the adjacent arable land has long since been leveled.

Yes, nice view for the nature lover. And for those who prefer to drive on unpaved roads, I suggest this route: https://www.komoot.de/highlight/5946079

The "Schweinchen" is a signpost on the "Schweinchen-Weg", one of the marked municipal paths in the municipality of Rethwischdorf. "Piggy Way" Rethwischdorf - Treuholz (Hof Dohrendorf) - Kiefholz (5km, walking time approx. 1 hour 20 minutes) The piggy trail starts at the village square by the lime tree in Rethwischdorf. From there it goes up the Kirchberg (Landesstraße L 87) past the church, the cemetery and the Fuhlenpott to Treuholz. There it goes approx. 250 meters behind the "Hof Dohrendorf" left up to a path that leads from here along the bend to the street "Kiefholz". Shortly before the end, a bank invites you to take a break. Here you turn left and continue past the Kiefholz and 400 meters later turn left again at the Altenweide/Schlagenweg junction, sharp left into the Schlagenweg, past the two wind turbines until you reach the B 208 after a right-hand bend. After crossing it, turn left on the combined footpath and cycle path along the B 208 back to Rethwischdorf and the starting point. See also: https://www.komoot.de/tour/864551510

Treuholz station was one of three stations of the former "Kaiserbahn" between Bad Oldesloe and Ratzeburg in Rethwisch. The station building still bears witness to the long-gone era of rail traffic through Rethwisch. However, it was a long time ago that trains ran through Rethwisch, because passenger traffic on the former route from Bad Oldesloe to Ratzeburg was discontinued in 1962, as was freight traffic nine years later. The route has now not only been shut down, but also dismantled a long time ago.
