There's a bench on the small jetty where you can enjoy the lovely view of the Küchensee lake... next to the jetty is a small beach. A perfect opportunity to cool your feet after a hike.

View of the Küchensee near Ratzeburg

Highlight • Viewpoint

Wonderful view of the lake. If you drive from Rutzenburg direction 🧭 Möhn from the best right side take the path to the left of the lake is difficult to drive a lot of sand and bad forest trails.

Mühlengraben, Mölln

Highlight • River

The connection between the Hegesee and the city center of Mölln along the Mühlengraben "Auf dendam" is awesome and very beautiful. The newly created reed bank and the fish ladder are worth seeing.

At the beginning of the year a trip to my favorite hiking area near Hamburg.
Mölln and Ratzeburg are in the Lauenburg Lakes Nature Park - a young moraine landscape with bumps (I don't want to call them hills), forests and lakes. And lots of wonderful hiking trails.

We actually visit this scenically interesting area with its many lakes a few times a year, partly because it's very easy to get there by bus from Wandsbek.
Today we were there with a small group: 3🏃‍♀️ and 5🏃‍♂️. Even though we know the landscape well, we always find new detours.

Today we went on tour with the bus 🚌. Line 8710 runs from Lübeck to both Ratzeburg and Mölln. Unfortunately, today was not a weekend, because on weekends the 8710 runs to the “Lüneburger Damm” stop, which is very hiker-friendly. Today I had to change trains at Ratzeburg station.

The 15th stage on the E1 is now behind me
This time I was only a good 15 kilometers long and almost exclusively on natural paths. The E1 leads from Ratzeburg to the Faschauer Mühle, first along the Küchensee, and then to Mölln throughout the forest.
Except for a short moment with sun, the weather was again rather gray and …

February 17, 2025,Ratzeburg - Mölln

Today I hiked on the E1 from Ratzeburg to Mölln in the best cold winter weather. First I walked a little way along the Ratzeburg Lake and then continued along the eastern shore of the Küchensee, always through the forest. I went through the forest to Mölln, I didn't meet anyone on the way. From a hill I had a …

Oh, you glittering February day! Sparkling ice on the lakes, sunshine peeking through the leafless beech forests, and a pleasantly dry 14 degrees Celsius! So dreamily beautiful that I almost didn't notice how monotonous this leg of the journey between the two towns was. But oh well, the woman leading a llama on a lead saved my day.
