A lovely path along the canal... You can often spot waterfowl... the only downside: the path offers little shade.

Fittingly, the restaurant "Il Lago" or as it is apparently called today "Restaurant am Lütjensee" is also located here.

Typical of such old railway lines, the route impresses with its many straight sections and the fact that there are hardly any inclines to overcome. You are also not affected by car traffic except at the points where you cross roads. The only section that runs parallel to a country road for about 3 km (between Sprenge and Mollhagen) is apparently currently being expanded (as of the end of 2024). All in all, a very scenic connection between Trittau and Bad Oldesloe. However, I recommend that everyone does not forget their repair kit, as the road surface with its small, sharp stones can very quickly lead to flat tires unless you have puncture-proof models. Accordingly, you hardly see any racing cyclists there.
