The Neukloster Forest is a beech forest with trees up to approximately 200 years old. Originally used by the monastery for which it is named, it is home to several, sometimes rare, animal and plant species. A short hike of about 4.5 km through the Neukloster Forest is wonderful. From the Pfingstmarktplatz parking lot, the W4 hiking trail leads into the forest, passing historical and archaeological treasures such as burial mounds and wayside crosses. Follow the signs to the Friedwald parking lot and turn left there to return to the Pfingstmarktplatz parking lot. Enjoy a beautiful hike here! 🚶🏼‍♀️🚶💚

Today I rode the Flowtrail, the root path along the train tracks and the three small descents in Neukloster Forst.

I really liked the route and can recommend it.

Fallen trees, I could ride around or push the bike.

The root path along the railway line is not "easy", on some sections I had to push my bike.

A resting place is located by the lake, a very beautiful spot to linger and relax.

After the lake, the root path also begins.

In the Neukloster Forest nature reserve, you can cycle through the oaks and beeches. The forest takes its name from a Benedictine nunnery that was founded nearby in 1286 and existed until the 18th century.
