Aukrug - Preetz - Nord-Ostsee-Kanal Three of the largest cities in Schleswig-Holstein act as namesakes for this cycling map: the state capital Kiel, the garrison town of Rendsburg and the traffic junction of Neumünster. In addition, fertile, extensive marshes as well as forests and meadows, the Kiel Canal, Holstein Switzerland with the Plöner See and the Baltic Sea coast between Eckernförde and Schönberg/Holstein with the Kieler Förde characterize the map. It doesn't matter whether you want to discover Holstein Switzerland on a multi-day tour or enjoy the varied landscape of southern Schleswig-Holstein on a day tour - cycling in the far north is always a pleasure! Navy, sea and multicultural - that's how today's modern Kiel can be described. The history of the city is shaped by the Kiel Fjord. In the northern district of Holtenau, the Kiel Canal flows into the fjord. This was created by expanding the Eider Canal between 1887 and 1895 to become the world's busiest artificial waterway for seagoing vessels. This is also where Rendsburg is located, whose current landmarks are the imposing steel bridge floating at a dizzy height and the transporter bridge (out of service until 2020) across the canal. In Neumünster, in the 18th century the villages of Großflecken and Kleinflecken merged to form a "Fleckengemeinde". Important trade routes such as the probably Bronze Age Oxen Route (north-south) or the medieval Lübsche Trade (west-east) crossed in the past. On the Kiel Canal route from Brunsbüttel to Kiel, you can not only experience international shipping, but also the numerous historical buildings and technical monuments that reflect the more than 100-year history of the canal. The Ochsenweg between Flensburg and Wedel follows the central long-distance route on which pious pilgrims, drovers with their herds of oxen, merchants and craftsmen and, in times of war, kings and princes and their armies traveled from northern to central Europe in the Middle Ages. Other long-distance cycle routes include the Holstein Switzerland cycle tour, the Mönchsweg and the Baltic Sea Cycle Route.
