Molli Narrow-Gauge Railway

Highlight • Structure

You can hear it from afar, and when it has passed you can still smell the coal dust. Simply beautiful - something from the old days.

August 23, 2024,Von Rerik zur Molli

So, today we made up for the rest of yesterday's tour.
We set off in sunshine and over 20 degrees towards Bad Doberan.
We also passed Kühlungsborn and Heiligendamm,
from where we could ride parallel to the Molli railway line.
The wind is blowing us from all directions again today 💨

May 25, 2024,Von Bad Doberan über Kühlungsborn nach Meschendorf

After a beautiful sunset yesterday evening, we first went by bike to Rerik for breakfast and from there by bus to Bad Doberan. There I had a rendezvous with Molli, who came towards me on the street. We hadn't seen each other for years, but I recognized her straight away. She didn't recognize me, though. Frustrated, I cycled back, this …

Today we went from Börgerende to Rerik.
The first stop was the Deck Beach Club in Heiligendamm.
A place to relax.
On to Kühlungsborn.
This time I climbed the border tower.
I highly recommend this little museum.
Once we arrived in Rerik, we had a quick snack at Harry's Fisherman's Hut. 😄
