A place of tranquility, peace, and togetherness. We parked our car in the parking lot to begin a hike. Afterwards, we took a short rest on a bench in front of the monastery – I met only friendly and open-minded people throughout the entire area!

The Brenner Moor is the largest salt marsh in inland Schleswig-Holstein. The salinity of the salt springs partially reaches that of the North Sea. A jewel of nature but very busy on weekends. Still a real highlight. The crossing is only possible thanks to the laid planks. However, cycling is prohibited

You have an absolutely fantastic view of Lake Segeberg from the highest point in the city - namely from the Kalkberg 😊... In addition there is the 360°C all-round view of Bad Segeberg for free 😃...

The Brenner Moor is the largest inland salt marsh in Schleswig-Holstein. It is located in the district of Stormarn in the town of Bad Oldesloe in the Trave lowlands and has been declared a nature reserve. What is special about the Brenner Moor are the brine springs that rise from a depth of approx. 500 meters and have their origin in a salt band that presumably stretches from Segeberg via Tralau and Bad Oldesloe to Lübeck. The plant communities and the animal world of the Brenner Moor are shaped in a special way by the unique occurrence of salt springs inland. The salty environment attracts plants that are otherwise only found near the coast, e.g. B. rush (Juncus gerardii) and beach trident (Triglochin maritima). In some places the water has a salinity that corresponds to that of the North Sea. In less saline parts of the nature reserve, reed beds, among other things, grow. https://metropolregion.hamburg.de/kulturlandschaften/4471072/brenner-moor/
