Magnificent view back towards Eckernförde and across Eckernförde Bay... however, the path is not very nice... there are prettier beaches along the bay, which are also quieter.

In some places, the path is almost impassable due to sand or rocks. On one side of the path, there's barbed wire, which you don't want to fall into.
