Highlight • Bridge

Tip: Shown on the komoot map as a moor, but for years this lowland has been permanently flooded with corresponding fauna and flora, which makes this wooden footbridge interesting for hikers.

January 13, 2026, Cliff Path at Bülk Lighthouse

A beautiful path right along the cliffs... if you prefer, you can also walk directly along the water... You can see the green and white lighthouse from afar and enjoy magnificent views of the water.

It has now happened: large sections of the path, which ran directly along the edge, have collapsed, taking numerous trees with them. Part of it has been cordoned off with barrier tape – which is now quite damaged. A narrow alternative path runs alongside the original one. It is very sad and frightening, but walkable – however, definitely not recommended for strollers or people with mobility impairments!

The approximately 2 km long Baltic Sea hiking trail from Strande to the lighthouse has a continuous panoramic view of the Kiel Fjord and at the lighthouse even a 270° view of the Bay of Kiel.

There are two alternative paths here: the path on the beach and the path on the cliff. Use the paths depending on the weather.

A very nice place, it invites you to linger for a moment and let your gaze wander.

Here the Baltic Sea 💦 or the Eckernförde Bay shows itself from one of its most beautiful sides. A beautiful sight and a magnificent view. The path leads through beech forests and along the coast!
