View of the Westensee from the Hohburg jetty

Highlight • Viewpoint

Interesting: The view here is directed precisely at the mouth of the Eider. If I rent a kayak in Achterwehr, that's my goal for the two-hour tour.

Westensee is always possible 😊👍, today we took the Schierensee small/large with us. Great tour a bit demanding 😥 with these muddy paths, but nice 😊, it went quite well ⬆️ and ⬇️.

Hiking around Lake Schieren and in the Schierensee forest is nothing new to me, only this time I combined both into one tour.
