Between Lake Einfeld and Lake Bordesholm, Mühbrook can be explored through its waters, nature watching and a recurring cultural event. The bathing area and the Sehpunkte circular trail are both associated with Lake Einfeld; every March, the Speeldeel performs plays in Low German. If you are looking for a hotel in Mühbrook, these distinctions can help you decide what to focus on during your stay: seasonal swimming, a trail with nature and lake themes, or a cultural event.
Two lakes, different shores
Mühbrook borders the north shore of the 168-hectare Lake Einfeld and also includes part of the southwest shore of Lake Bordesholm. This connects the town to two bodies of water along different stretches of shore. The local bathing area and the Sehpunkte circular trail are specifically associated with Lake Einfeld.
Nature conservation and birdwatching
The area around Lake Einfeld includes a nature reserve with reed beds and floating-leaved plants. It offers the chance to observe rare waterbirds with binoculars. The reeds, floating-leaved plants and birdlife provide specific points of interest for nature lovers: you can focus on plants growing in the water or look out for waterbirds with your binoculars.
Swimming at Lake Einfeld
The bathing area in Mühbrook on Lake Einfeld has a swimming raft that was replaced in September 2020. Swimming is seasonal; check local conditions before your visit. If swimming is a key part of your trip, plan around this seasonal schedule.
The Sehpunkte circular trail
The Sehpunkte circular trail around Lake Einfeld is a signposted hiking route of approximately 8 km. Information boards cover the lake’s history, its flora and fauna, and water levels. The route therefore combines a hike with information about nature and the lake. The approximate length gives you an idea of how far the trail covers; individual signs may change. Follow the signs and information boards in place as you go.
Low German theatre in March
The Speeldeel adds a cultural highlight: every March, the Mühbrook theatre group performs plays in Low German. Exact performance dates may vary from year to year. Check the dates in advance if you want to include a performance in your travel plans. Unlike the seasonal bathing area, March is the clear time of year for the theatre; consult the current schedule for a specific date.
The wider setting: Rendsburg-Eckernförde
The wider destination of Rendsburg-Eckernförde offers more than the lake landscape around Mühbrook. The district of Rendsburg-Eckernförde has 55 kilometres of Baltic Sea coastline, a signposted network of 1,000 kilometres of cycle routes and four nature parks. The 180-kilometre Nature Park Hiking Trail passes through the district’s four nature parks. The European long-distance hiking trail E1, marked along its entire route with a white St Andrew’s cross, also passes through the Hüttener Berge, Brekendorf Forest and over Aschberg. In good weather, the 98-metre-high Aschberg offers panoramic views reaching the Kiel Canal, Eckernförde Bay and Kiel.
