Discover the region

Welcome to Plön, the charming little town in the heart of the Holstein Switzerland Nature Park. The geographical location is unique: surrounded by rolling hills and picturesque lakes, the region offers a wealth of outdoor activities for nature lovers and water sports enthusiasts.

But Plön also has a lot to offer culturally: Visit Plön Castle, which towers majestically over the town and is now used as a boarding school. Or take a stroll through the historic town centre with its cobbled streets and half-timbered houses from times gone by.

An absolute highlight are the numerous events such as the annual jazz festival or the festival of lights on the lakeside. Music lovers get their money's worth here, as do families with children.

Culinary guests can look forward to regional specialities: be sure to try the famous Ploener Karpfen (carp) or enjoy a fruity fruit brandy directly from the farm.

Also in bad weather, there are many leisure activities in Plön. How about a visit to the museum of the district of Plön, for example? Here visitors can learn all about the history of the region as well as its art and cultural treasures.

On the other hand, those who prefer to stay active can let off steam in one of the local sports halls or go bowling.

Whether it's spring, summer, autumn or winter - every season has its own unique charm in Plön. However, it is especially beautiful in summer when the lakes invite you to swim and the green of the forests glows particularly intensively.

Plön, Landkreis Plön - A destination with many facets and definitely worth a trip!

    Für diese Tour haben wir uns 3 Tage Zeit genommen und ich muss sagen, dass sie sich gelohnt haben. Ich kann dem vorherigen Kommentator nicht beipflichten, dass man diese Tour nur mit E-Bike schaffen kann. Wir waren mit normalen Tourenrädern und Gepäck für 3 Tage unterwegs. Klar, man weiß, dass die Holsteinische Schweiz nicht ohne Höhenmeter ist. Darauf muss man sich einlassen. Wenn man aber völlig ohne Kondition unterwegs ist, sollte man von einer Radtour über 200 km ohnehin die Finger lassen. Und ob eine Tour über diese Länge etwas für Kinder ist, muss jeder selbst beurteilen . Fakt ist, dass die Strecke wunderschön ist und immer wieder an landschaftlich herausragenden Plätzen vorbeiführt. Von mir gibt es eine klare Empfehlung!

    Sehr abwechslungsreiche Wanderung! Seeufer, Wälder, Felder und nur ganz selten Straßenverkehr. Sehr zu empfehlen. Ein Navigationsgerät ist bei dieser Wanderung sinnvoll.

    Vielen Dank für diese schöne Tour, die wir am vergangenen Wochenende machen durften. Insgesamt tolle Route an den fünf Seen. Einen Stern ziehe ich ab für die Wahl des Start- und Endpunktes. Startpunkt außerhalb Plöns auf dem Koppelsberg, zu dem man wieder hin muss bei einer Rundfahrt. Das Routenende befindet sich jedoch plötzlich in Plön.

    Diese Tour mache ich immer wieder gerne - kaum Asphalt, zumeist ruhig und sehr gute Verbindungen für die Hin- oder Rücktour per Bahn (2xstdl., auch an Feiertagen). Einkehrmöglichkeiten: Pizzeria am Bahnhof in Malente oder Eisenpfanne (Innenstadt Plön) haben ein gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Die Öffnungszeiten in Malente sind allerdings, besonders im Winter, nicht so wandererfreundlich. Wenn man außerhalb der Feiertage wandert, kann es auch einigermaßen einsam werden. Noch ein kleiner Tipp: kurz vor Malente gibt es die Möglichkeit zum Kneipen. Sicher gibt es in anderen Gebieten spannendere Wanderungen , aber für Schleswig-Holstein ist diese Tour eine wirklich schöne Option.
