Alte Salzstraße on the Elbe-Lübeck Canal near Mölln

Highlight • Trail

The Salt Road is very different on both sides! On the one hand it is very straight, always along the river.
On the other hand, however, the paths are often zigzag or can only be passed with heavy equipment.

Hellbachtal mit Lottsee, Krebssee und Schwarzsee

Nature Reserve

17.5 km

Krebssee

Highlight • Lake

The Krebssee is easy to reach and walk around from the Helbachtal.
If you approach it from the east from the old freight route, a very steep descent leads down to the bathing area, which is really fun. I would not recommend the drive back up. To continue your journey, you can first take the path along the shore, from which it later leads to other paths that are not so steep.

Nestled in lush flora and fauna, the nutrient-poor and turquoise-blue Krebssee with its sparkling clear water is hidden. It has a visibility depth of up to 7 meters.
An idyllic view of nature invites you to linger. Many species of dragonflies with their glittering wings find their habitat here. If you are lucky, you can even spot a kingfisher.
You reach the Krebssee when you leave Mölln in the direction of Lehmrade on the Gudower Weg (L287). Opposite the campsite, take a paved forest path on the right to the “Tiefe Kuhlen” car park.
From here, continue south (approx. 3.6 km).
Here you will find crystal clear water and a small sandy bathing area with two benches.
The walk here is worth it and is definitely recommended.
