With more than 200 clear lakes, gentle hills and light foliage tree forests the

Holsteinische Schweiz nature reserve is one of the most exciting parts of

Schleswig-Holstein. Once huge glaciers formed this landscape. Rare forms

of animals and plants have since settled here. The reserve extends to 750

square kilometres and is therefore the largest nature reserve of the nort-

hern most county of the Federal Republic. To mention a few more superla-

tives: in its area the largest lake (Groer Plner See, 3000 ha) and the
