September 11, 2023,Nach Kappeln und Olpenitz - Runde von Waabs

This tour is particularly nice because it combines everything that makes up the east of Schleswig-Holstein: you drive through hilly fields and pastures, the Schlei, the only fjord in Germany, accompanies you and there are beautiful places like Sieseby. Finally, there is also the Baltic Sea with Olpenitz, Schönhagen and Damp.

And I almost got lost in Russia...😳

From Kappeln to the Baltic Sea resort of Olpenitz, then from Olpenitz to Fischleger Strand, always along the Baltic Sea coast. Via Pommerby, Söby, Seeholz, Grünlund, and Marienhof to Sieseby. Then along the Schlei via Bienebek to Winnemark and back to Kappeln. We saw many large rapeseed fields in Schwansen, in full bloom and fragrant.

Today's tour went from our holiday home via Kappeln to the new development area at the mouth of the Schlei, "Schleidamm"! A new development area that not everyone likes. Some of the houses (boathouses) are on a kind of raft system. It's all a matter of taste! The rest of the tour continued along the Baltic coast, sometimes with restrictions …

First tour from Grödersby to Kappeln, which is worth seeing, with its museum harbor and lively old town and pedestrian zone. Continue to the former naval base Olpenitz. Today a very large holiday complex with houses and apartments. Some very attractive, others lacking restaurants, cafes on the site with very long walks to the supermarket. Continue along the Baltic Sea …

Very nice tour with many nice breaks and idyllic encounters with nature. There is a lot of water, wide fields and even forest to cycle through. Sometimes along well-developed bike paths and sometimes on narrow paths along the cliffs - simply very varied.
Together with part 1 it results in a circuit, accidentally pressed save. You can get very good …
