Hemmelsdorfer See Boardwalk

Ostholstein  >  Germany

This short boardwalk is in the village of Hemmelsdorf right next to a popular restaurant. Lovely in early morning, before the crowds arrive.

Description

The Hemmelsdorfer See is a lake that has many different water birds, depending on the time of year. Breeding birds include Лебедь-шипун, Серая утка, Лысуха and Чомга. Other birds that are observerd regularly are Обыкновенный зимородок, Орлан-белохвост, Болотный лунь, Тростниковая камышевка, Дроздовидная камышевка, Варакушка and Усатая синица. During migration you can observe birds like Малая чайка, Скопа, Чёрная крачка and Красноголовый нырок.

Coolest one I've seen were Луток in winter and I heard Иволга in the trees in summer. The boardwalk goes out into the lake and along the reeds. Also great spot for landscape photography.

Access

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.
