Excursión ciclista de un día de Kappeln a Eckernförde

Looking for a scenic ride along the Baltic coast? This route takes you from Kappeln to Eckernförde, covering just over 40 km on mostly smooth, paved surfaces—perfect for a leisurely day out on the bike. You’ll start in Kappeln, a charming fishing town famous for its herring and its pretty drawbridge over the Schlei estuary.

Pedal south through rolling Schleswig-Holstein countryside, following mainly quiet bike paths and country roads. You’ll pass lush fields, cozy villages, and maybe even catch the scent of the sea. With only gentle hills (over 120 meters of ascent in total), the ride is pleasant and accessible—even if you’re not a hardcore cyclist.

You’ll finish in Eckernförde, a lovely seaside town known for its sandy beaches, cobbled lanes, and vibrant little harbor. It’s just the spot to treat yourself to a fish sandwich or some local ice cream before heading home. Happy riding!
