Descrição
The Hemmelsdorfer See is a lake that has many different water birds, depending on the time of year. Breeding birds include Cisne-vulgar, Frisada, Galeirão-comum and Mergulhão-de-crista. Other birds that are observerd regularly are Guarda-rios-comum, Águia-rabalva, Tartaranhão-ruivo-dos-pauis, rouxinol-dos-caniços, Rouxinol-grande-dos-caniços, Pisco-de-peito-azul and Chapim-de-bigode. During migration you can observe birds like Gaivota-pequena, Águia-pesqueira, Gaivina-preta and Zarro-comum.
Coolest one I've seen were Merganso-pequeno in winter and I heard Papa-figos in the trees in summer. The boardwalk goes out into the lake and along the reeds. Also great spot for landscape photography.

Acesso
The Hemmelsdorfer See is located north of Lübeck in the immediate vicinity of the Baltic Sea. The restaurant has a small parking lot, in which you can get a spot very early in the morning. . Otherwise there is a free, public parking area available a little further down the road, which I marked as the trail head. Click on a P in the map for directions.
