Kostenloser Bus-Shuttle durch den Herrentunnel (H Am Stau)

Respect that something like this exists. You come here, push your bike onto the bus trailer, get on the bus and travel for free between Herreninsel and Lübeck Siems. All information: herrentunnel.de/index.php/radfahrer.html.

Palinger Heath

Highlight • Natural

The Palinger Heide extends in the west to the border with Schleswig-Holstein (see eg palingen.de/index.php/palinger-heide or unv.luebeck.de/files/karte_lsg_lauerholz.pdf), here marked by the land ditch. While the formerly extended heathland has been largely reforested to this day, the original heath landscape has been preserved in the area marked here. Small bridges crossing the Landgraben lead to Lübeck, e.g. into the Lauerholz.

Palinger Heide: Heathland and Young Trees

Highlight • Natural

A few steps away from the path and at reduced speed (i.e. not thundering through the heather at 20 km / h plus) you can admire the nature of the heather with heather and small trees ... :-)

DWM Shooting Range Bullet Trap

Highlight • Monument

Even if it's really close to the border. Since the Landgraben clearly marks the border, this is definitely NOT in the territory of the former GDR!
It is probably an even older testimony to another dark era in German history:
From 1934 onwards, the DWM (German Weapons and Ammunition Factories) set up shooting ranges up to 1.9 km long in Lübeck to test the effectiveness of their ammunition. [Jungbluth, R., The Quandts: Germany's most successful entrepreneurial family, Campus Verlag, 2015]
Private Internet sources suggested (the sites in question no longer exist) that it was the bullet trap of the large shooting range.

Schwedenschanzen in Lauerholz

Highlight • Historical Site

The name "Schwedenschanze" is actually wrong. The name comes from the fact that old fortifications were simply called that in the past.
This rampart consists of up to five ramparts and was intended to protect the Lübsche area from the Mecklenburgers.

Bench With a View of the Lake in LSG Lauerholz

Highlight • Viewpoint

There are very nice places to get to the Moorsee, it's especially nice if there's also a bench!

Wesloer Singletrail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A few meters next to Wesloer Weg, a narrow path winds its way through Lauerholz from Wesloer Landstrasse almost to Mecklenburger Strasse. But you can also get in and out several times in between. There are also a little bit of ups and downs with moderate inclines. Simple but nice and in some places it even works right.
I remembered the trail as a special path for pedestrians and riders and therefore avoided it for ages, but now it is actually clearly marked along its entire length as a special path for pedestrians/cyclists. However, many pedestrians are not to be expected and people like to be considerate anyway...
