July 19, 2024,Rundfahrt um die Kieler Förde

Our tour today on July 19th, 2024 started again in Schilksee. We set off on our bikes at around 9 a.m. and enjoyed breakfast in the harbor. From there we took the ferry to Laboe, where our first destination was the museum submarine U 995.

A tour around the Kiel Fjord. A better time for this tour is the off-season. Then it is not so crowded and not so hot. However, the Strand-Laboe ferry does not run then. Then you have to translate from Friedrichsort.

Timetable at sfk-kiel.de

We especially recommend the Tiessenkai with the Schiffercafe and the Lucifer Foerdeblick at the Holtenau lighthouse.

We started quite late today. From Holtenau we head north to Friedrichsort. At the Falkenstein pier we wait 90 minutes until the ferry takes us to the other side to Laboe.
The place is well visited on the bridge day. We don't stay long - it's almost 4 and we still have to go down to Kiel and back up …

Very nice tour with great views of the Kiel Fjord and the Gorch Fock that was in the harbor. In the Kiel district of Wellingdorf and Neumühlen Dietrichsdorf we had to take detours due to construction sites. There you can also drive nicer sections.

July 24, 2024,Kieler Förde

Today was a typical tourist tour that served up the clichés. Watching big ships, the best weather for such a tour, the view over the horizon and of course fish sandwiches.
In Kiel the tour went along phenomenal bicycle highways. The cities of Münster and Bremen should take a look at these routes when they get the chance. Kiel is …

A nice trip around the Kiel Fjord. I had to wait an hour at the Falckenstein jetty, which wasn't boring on the beach with my feet in the water.
Back in Kiel, I went for a stroll around town (hence this strange recording).
Back on the Kiellinie.
