고켈스‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

great quiet place

Here, you have to bypass a pasture. The grass is extremely high, and the path itself is barely visible. This requires a good feel for the road, leg strength, and a good dose of intuition.

The Haaler Au drains part of the Aukrug Nature Park. It was originally a left tributary of the Eider. With the construction of the Kiel Canal, it was separated there and has flowed into the canal ever since. Shortly before it flows into the canal, it forms a small lake. This can be seen here.

The inscription on the memorial stone reads: Expansion of Haaler Au 1932 - 1986 in honor of Dipl. Ing. Hinerk Bayer, ORR Andreas Paulsen, ORR Jens Muthorst.

Really a very interesting root system

It's always impressive how the trees with such fascinating root systems can hold their own above ground in wind and weather 🌳...

200 year old beech

The lake-like polder areas on the lower reaches of the Haaler Au provide a habitat for many animals. The pygmy swans in particular use these areas as a resting place in February / March and strengthen themselves here for their onward flight. So use the winter time for a trip here. During the growing season, everything should be very overgrown and therefore less of the beautiful nature visible.
