The Lübeck Trade was an important trade route in the Middle Ages that connected the cities of Lübeck and Hamburg. Several memorial stones along this route commemorate its historical importance.

At 76.8 meters, the Boxberg is not the highest elevation in the Aukrug Nature Park, but it is one of the few moraine peaks in central Holstein that deserves the name "mountain." The Itzespitze, at 83.4 meters, is even higher than the Boxberg. Today, only a few beech trees grow on the grounds of the Boxberg recreational forest.

It's wonderfully quiet here. You feel like you're in Scandinavia.

While we can no longer imagine our landscape without the road network that cuts through everything, we may well ask ourselves at this point: When and for what purpose did all this come about? Why did people want and need to get from A to B at certain times? Peaceful trade is definitely preferable to warlike reasons.

Nice and quiet place, good place to take a break

The pristine depths of the earth still preserve much that is undiscovered. We owe our good spring water to Mother Nature. In Nindorf the Kimberquelle brings gut2 to light. You can discover how and where for yourself on site. This very special source was discovered quite by accident when drilling for oil in Nindorf in 1884. When the builders penetrated the marl layer, they encountered an artesian water vein. Since then it has been bubbling up all by itself. An artesian well was then built, which supplied the neighboring community of Remmels with water between 1913 and 1972. Of course, the local women also used this unfiltered, iron-rich water for washing. However, due to the high iron content in the water, their laundry never really turned white - which is why they were called the "grey mice of Remmels". For this reason, in the 1970s, the women in the area pushed through to have their drinking water supply connected to the public drinking water network. Apparently they didn't realize at the time how good their water actually was. The water tower in Remmels, which is under monument protection, still bears witness to these times. http://www.gutzwei.de/de/quelle/

Lots of ponds, some with a small jetty. Also suitable for a short break.
