Interesting places for excursions are waiting for you on your way from north to south, to the right and left of the A7 motorway. Get to know the maritime flair of Flensburg , the Gateway to the North. Or visit Schleswig, the city of the cathedral and museums, with the Gottorf Palace right on the Schlei. You can find out about the Dannewerk and the Vikings in the Danish museum “Danevirkegaarden” and in Haithabu.

Pure nature – in the Midland of Schleswig-Holstein as well: flood plains, moors and heaths, hills and the Knicks (low walls of earth planted with bushes and trees) typical of the landscape in the natural reserves Aukrug, Hüttener Berge and Westensee will cast their spell on you. Do not miss the opportunity to visit Rendsburg on the Kiel Canal . The impressive high railway bridge and its transporter bridge suspended on long steel cables will overwhelm you. Fascinating to watch as giant container ships and luxurious cruise ships pass along the most heavily trafficked maritime shipping route of the world. What about Germany ’s largest marketplace in Heide?

Boating in the Stör-Bramau valley near Itzehoe? Or taking the family to the zoo in Neumünster? The spa charm of Bad Bramstedt is also well worth a visit. Rose fans will be drawn more in the direction of Uetersen and its surroundings. Kaltenkirchen is waiting for you with the largest swimming, sports and leisure-time centre in north Germany . Stop-offs in Schleswig-Holstein’s Midland – simply worth your while!
