Jakobsweg Flensburg - Cologne - part 1 from Krusau (DK) to Osnabrück
The Jakobsweg from the Danish border to Osnabrück follows in the first section the Via Jutlandica (western branch) and the Via Baltica from Harsefeld. Many parts of the Via Jutlandica are identical to the old Ox Road. More information can be found on my blog at " http://gerhard.mlq.me ". The individual daily stages represent my personal route selection, which sometimes differs from the "official" marking. Have a good journey! Buen Camino!
