From the Kägsdorfer Landweg (cycle path), this dirt road curves gently uphill to the Bastorf lighthouse. There are benches for a rest on the ascent path. The lighthouse can be seen above one and the Baltic Sea behind it.

November 3, 2022,220. 🇩🇪 Bastorf - Leuchtturm Bastorf - Kühlungsborn - Riedensee - Kägsdorf - Bastorf
Today we start at the Buk lighthouse, the highest lighthouse in Germany. At the highest point in the area, a decent breeze is blowing around our ears. First we walk to the Kuehlungsborner beach and then always along the water to the NSG Riedensee. At this point we leave the sea and scramble back up to the parking lot at …

Today a hike to the Bastorf lighthouse. It is also called the BUK lighthouse.
The path first led along the beach to the NSG Riedensee, one of the last and largely intact beach lakes. Stone collectors would get their money's worth here.
At a parking lot, turn off towards Kägsdorf. Beautiful manor houses and holiday homes alternate with a view …

nice hike, nice weather... we almost got a sunburn.
First from Kuehlungsborn-West up the hill to the Leutturm Bastorf, further through Kägsdorf to the western beach + back on the water.
Lots of people out and about, lots of dogs, few seagulls (today), some anglers...

A classic at the beginning of the year: from Kühlungsborn to the beach to Rieden and then on to the Bastorfer lighthouse. The best: the apple strudel in the café at the top of the lighthouse.

Today, with our guests from Thuringia, it was all about the beach and the view. Perfect!

From the tower on the hill you have a wonderful all-round view and the tour could already be completed with your eyes. So then back to practice, on hiking trails to Kuehlungsborn West, on the beach and near the beach to Riedensee and Kägsdorf. Conclusion: Running on …
