퀼룽스본‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

Heiligendamm에서 Kühlungsborn까지 매우 아름다운 코스입니다. 단단한 길을 걷는 것을 좋아한다면 Steilküstenweg(제방 때문에 항상 물을 볼 수 있는 것은 아님)를 이용하고, 그렇지 않다면 해변을 따라 직접 걷고, Hühnergötter(작은 돌)를 찾고 바람을 코에 맞으세요 🤩

For these reasons, groynes have been built in Kühlungsborn since the first half of the 19th century in rows of massive wooden piles. They extend up to 80 meters into the Baltic Sea, are sometimes driven 6 meters deep into the sand, and are spaced approximately 60 meters apart, perpendicular to the shoreline. The groyne root connects the groyne to the shore, and the waterside end is called the groyne head. Over time, groynes made of other materials, such as reinforced concrete and rubble, have been used. Today, they are usually built as rubble dams, in simpler cases as single-wall groynes using wooden piles made of eucalyptus, which is more durable than native wood species.

The pier in Kühlungsborn is highly recommended 😊 From here you have a fantastic view of the Baltic Sea 🌊😍

The special feature of the quiet village of Kägsdorf is its fine, sandy, pristine beach in the heart of the Rieden nature reserve, which is exempt from tourist tax year-round. Here, you'll not only experience wonderful bathing days in the summer, but also experience unique natural wonders in the fall and spring. The romantic setting at the tip of the Rieden nature reserve invites couples and families to enjoy a unique picnic, complete with sunset.

The Baltic Sea reclaims parts of its beach every year, especially during the autumn storms. Around 70% of the Baltic Sea coast in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania is constantly being eroded by wind and weather. The wooden groynes offer many advantages: As breakwaters, they reduce the intensity with which the waves hit the beach. The current parallel to the shore is also slowed down by the walls, so that the coast is less eroded - the beach is therefore eroded less quickly and with less force. Groynes are built so that there is sufficient water depth for shipping during low tide periods. As a coastal protection measure, groynes are placed perpendicularly or diagonally to the shoreline to divert tides and coastal currents and to influence waves and surf currents.

A WALK ALONG THE COAST If you walk along the beautiful beaches of the Baltic Sea resort of Kühlungsborn, you will not miss the many wooden posts that protrude from the sand and sea at regular intervals. But what is that all about? Grooves are basically dams that were built for various reasons. The most well-known are probably the wooden groynes of our Baltic Sea, which consist of several individual posts that are driven into the ground horizontally to the coastline and usually protrude about 40 to even 80 meters into the sea. In Kühlungsborn, the well-preserved groynes stretch from the Hansa House in Kühlungsborn West to the boat harbor in Kühlungsborn East. The classic storm surge protection system on the Baltic Sea usually consists of groynes - sandy beach - dune - coastal protection forest and sea dike. The groynes lead to the seaward shift of the surf current parallel to the shore. The waves are already deprived of most of their power before they reach the beach and the dune.

Groynes - also called kribben, höfte or stacke - are basically dams that civil and hydraulic engineering companies build for various reasons. The most well-known are probably the wooden groynes in the Baltic Sea, which consist of several individual piles that are driven into the ground horizontally to the coastline and usually extend about 40 to 80 meters into the sea.
