Discover the region

Altenhof has a rich history dating back to the Middle Ages. Visitors can see historic buildings such as St. Andrew's Church or take a walk through the village and enjoy the traditional half-timbered houses.

For nature enthusiasts, Altenhof offers many opportunities for hiking, cycling or fishing along the shores of Lake Witten. In summer, you can also go swimming here or rent a boat and paddle on the lake.

Cultural highlights include the annual "Wittstock" music festival and various art exhibitions in the Alte Schmiede gallery. Altenhof also has a lot to offer in the way of culinary delights - be sure to try the regional specialities such as fish rolls with fresh Baltic fish or hearty potato soup.

If it rains, we recommend a trip to the nearby town of Eckernförde with its pretty harbour and beach promenade or a visit to Gottorf Castle in Schleswig.

And where is it most beautiful? It's hard to say - whether it's watching the sunset at Lake Wittensee or having a cosy dinner at the Seeterrassen restaurant with a view of the water - each place has its very own charm and is waiting to be discovered!
