Once a flourishing seafaring town, Maasholm has been transformed into an idyllic fishing village that invites you to take romantic walks around the Schlei.

The harbor is mainly dominated by the Schumacher Bridge and the sea rescue cruiser “Nis Randers”.

A little away from the village, towards the east, you will pass a small stone pillar marked with the 10th degree of longitude. From the elevation you have a nice view over the loop to the Schwansener Ufer.

September 24, 2023,Schlei-Schönwettertour(bis Maasholm und dann noch nach Schönhagen )

Today was perfect cycling weather!
Our tour took us via Kappeln and the Reeperbahn😇 to Maasholm. The bike paths were a bit bumpy and not very well signposted. We chose the way back via Schönhagen because it went along the water and there was always something new to discover. A successful day😊

Today we drove along fields, meadows and the Baltic coast towards Denmark. We passed a bird watching station and some empty sand beaches.
