Fantastic hiking weather on a very beautiful lake in Holstein Switzerland.

You can save yourself an all-round hike, 2/3 on the street or through the village, only 1/3 directly on the water. Not so nice.

May 1, 2022,Dieksee-Rundweg ab Bad Malente-Gremsmühlen

The circular route around the Dieksee looks more idyllic on the map than it is: a lot on the road or through towns. Feels like a maximum of 1/3 of the route near the lake.

The second half of the tour was definitely the nicer one...
Lots of road and asphalt at the beginning 😞😞
Near Timmforf, we were able to watch two 🦅🦅 playing 🙏🏻🤩 Good thing I had my binoculars with me 🥰

March 8, 2022,Sonne satt am Dieksee🌞🌞

The weather this week lures to the water and the woods, which still let in a lot of sun. Popular destinations are also pleasantly deserted during the week😊.
Above all, the path through the old beech forest south of Dieksee is particularly beautiful. But you can clearly see the damage done by the last storms. Huge trees are everywhere, snapped …

Not necessarily the best Sunday weather, but with appropriate rain gear we still arrived relatively dry

This year I've decided to do the Iron Lake Challenge Schleswig-Holstein
The 10 largest lakes in Schleswig-Holstein are circled... I ticked the first box with today's Dieksee round.

December 29, 2021,Nebliche Wanderung um den Dieksee

A lap around the Dieksee this time had the advantage that you couldn't get lost in the thick fog. So you had to concentrate all the more, to stay on your feet at all. That was soooo slippery😱. I was annoyed that I forgot my spikes at home. It took us a good 4 hours for the 12 km, only …

April 19, 2025,Dieksee-Runde im tristen Frühling (ILC SH 10)

Now the rain that everyone has been wishing for weeks is here, and it's Easter weekend. No day-tripper had THAT combination on their wish list, but that's just how it is...
We set out again to circumnavigate one of the two local lakes. From the southwestern tip of Lake Dieksee, via Malente and Timmdorf, back again. In Malente, we fortified …
