Discover the region

Geographically, Elmenhorst lies between Hamburg and Lübeck and is surrounded by a picturesque landscape of meadows and fields. The region is known for its idyllic atmosphere and the numerous historic buildings such as Ahrensburg Castle or Trittau Manor House.

Tourist attractions include the Hohe Mark Nature Park with its many hiking and cycling trails and the beautiful Sachsenwald forest, a wooded area covering over 6,000 hectares. Cultural highlights can be found above all in the towns of Ahrensburg and Bargteheide, where there are many museums, galleries and theatres.

The culinary specialities of this region are also particularly recommended: be sure to try the famous Rote Grütze pudding or enjoy a cup of tea during a leisurely walk through the beautiful countryside.

For outdoor activities, summer is particularly suitable, when you can play on the nearby golf course, for example, or take a trip to the swimming beach at Lake Großensee. In winter, on the other hand, you can go ice skating on frozen lakes or cross-country skiing - ideal for active holidaymakers!

Even when it's raining, there are plenty of activities in Elmenhorst: visit Ahrensburg Castle, for example, or take a guided tour of the region's historic buildings.

Where is the most beautiful in Elmenhorst? That's hard to say, because every place has its own charm. However, walks through the Sachsenwald forest or a trip to the Großensee lake are particularly recommended - here you can enjoy the peace and beauty of nature.

Elmenhorst is definitely worth a trip! With this travel guide you have received all the important information for your stay in this enchanting region of Stormarn. We wish you an unforgettable holiday!

    Überraschend wunderschöne Wanderung, die ich in umgekehrter Richtung gelaufen bin. Start ist Sülfeld Markt. Wer sich die 3 km auf Fahrradwegen und am Fahrstreifen schenken will, steigt in Elmenhorst in die Etappe ein. Dort führt der Weg über Felder entlang des Stormanweges zum Jerbeker Forst. Auf anfangs schmalen, später dann breiten Wegen wird dieser bis zur Parkanlage in Jersbek durchquert. Noch heute kann man sich den Zauber einer der beeindruckendsten Barock-Anlagen vorstellen. Am Gebäudekomplex des Jersbeker Gutshauses geht es vorbei und hinter dem Eiskeller weiter zwischen Rapsfeldern. Hier wartet ein Pavillon auf Wanderer. Nun ist es nicht mehr weit nach Klein Hansdorf, das nach rechts verlassen wird. Schon bald betritt man das Duvenstedter Brook. Die Moor- und Birkenlandschaft ist das Zuhause vieler Tiere. Der eingetragene Weg über den Grenzwall ist an der Hälfte zwischen dem 1.3. und 31.7. gesperrt. Man kann dem Weg aber einfach nach links weg folgen und ihn zu Ende gehen. Dann nähert man sich Wohldorf von Süden. Wer will, kann von hier noch weiter 3,5 km nach Ohlstedt einbauen und entlang der Auen und dann quer durch den Wohldorfer Wald bis zur S-Bahn Ohlstedt laufen.
