Circular
This idyllic circular route leads through the western municipal forest of Flensburg, known as Marienhölzung. The trail opens up the largest contiguous forest area in the city and runs along a relaxed mixture of wide, well-maintained forest roads and shady forest paths. A highlight is the alternation between dense beech and oak stands and the passage at the historic Marienhölzung inn, which has been a destination for excursions for over 200 years. The route is mostly flat with only minimal inclines, making it ideal for a relaxing walk, a short run or a family outing just outside the city gates.
