Gut Perdöel

Highlight • Historical Site

The Perdoel estate is one of the oldest estates in Holstein and, as a noble manor, was around eight times as large as it is today and extended over Belau, Stolpe, Depenau, Ruhwinkel and Schönböken towards Neumünster.

Western B430 Bypass Route

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

There is a great bypass around the town center northwest of Ascheberg through an industrial area (see highlight section at the northern end of this section), which I would avoid because of the heavy traffic of the B430 through the town.

In the south it's great to / from Stocksee or Dersau. In Ascheberg north, avoid the B430 if you don't necessarily want to go to Plön. There are many small side streets, nobody has to drive on the bike paths on the busy federal highways 76 or 430 (the route planners are happy to suggest automatically and which you cannot pass if you want to go to the center of Plön).

Kattholz Oak

Highlight • Natural Monument

It is variously described as the thickest oak in Germany and is therefore one of the most well-known oaks of all. It has the enormous trunk circumference due to large trunk outgrowths. The trunk is said to have gotten this thickening from the repeated eating of young twigs by grazing cattle. The main base then reacted with strong scab formation and flooding. It is said to have lost its crown towards the end of the 19th century down to a height of 6 m. To date, the oak has slowly regenerated and formed a new top branch and side branches. In the 1970s, young people set fires in the trunk, which severely damaged the oak. You can still see the blackened interior. It is one of the fastest growing oaks, which is why an age of 300 years or more would theoretically be possible given the rapid annual growth. If this development continues, it could soon be the strongest oak in Germany, since it is only 8 cm apart from the alder oak.

Schierensee (Wankendorf)

Highlight • Lake

This Schierensee is located in the Plön district in Schleswig-Holstein, southeast of the town of Wankendorf. It is part of the Bornhöved chain of lakes, is about 30 hectares in size and up to 5.5 m deep. It is about one kilometer long and about 300 meters wide at its widest point.
The shores of the lake are dominated by dense deciduous trees, only on the northeast side do fields reach right up to the lake shore.
On the north shore there is a beautiful, free bathing area with a large lawn and a small sandy beach.


This Schierensee near Wankendorf should not be confused with the not so far away Großer Schierensee in the Rendsburg-Eckernförde district in Schleswig-Holstein, northwest of the town of Schierensee.
