Yet, it has so much more to offer. In the southeastern part of the country, right on the outskirts of Hamburg, lies the Duchy of Lauenburg. This rural region with a royal name is worth a visit not just because of its idyllic nature! It&#8217;s also home to over 40 lakes and smaller bodies of water that are perfect for taking a dip or a little sail. Here are four tips for water fun in the Duchy of Lauenburg!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-canoeing-in-the-footsteps-of-the-white-tailed-eagle\">Canoeing in the Footsteps of the White-Tailed Eagle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gracefully, the white-tailed eagle soars over the lakes of Lauenburg. As for us, we can only observe it from the water while it circles in the sky. The best way to do this is from a canoe. The journey starts on the Wakenitz river, passing through the Ratzeburg Lake, K\u00fcchensee, and the Schaalseekanal. Eventually, you&#8217;ll reach the Salemer Lake and Pipersee. Feeling tired? Accommodation is available for water wanderers at the Wakenitz-Camp in <strong>Rothenhusen <\/strong>and the Schaalsee-Camp. Canoes are also available for rent at these camps! Alternatively, there&#8217;s a rental station at Salemer Lake. By the way, the small blue boathouse with its picturesque reed roof is perfect for a quick photo stop!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Two people canoeing on Lake Salem in the Duchy of Lauenburg\" class=\"wp-image-13598\" srcset=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-883x589.jpg 883w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-770x514.jpg 770w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-293x196.jpg 293w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-1400x934.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Two people canoeing on Lake Salem in the Duchy of Lauenburg\" class=\"wp-image-13598\" srcset=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-883x589.jpg 883w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-770x514.jpg 770w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-293x196.jpg 293w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia-1400x934.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-salem-canoe-c-AlexKMedia.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">AlexKMedia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sailing Around the Island City of Ratzeburg<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>White sails billow in the wind, with a majestic church tower on a background island.

There are plenty of romantic forest lakes here. For example, there&#8217;s the picturesque Pinnsee, where the surrounding deciduous forest reflects like a mirror. A visit to L\u00fctauer Lake is also worthwhile. With its small but fine sandy beach, it invites you to relax. Or, how about a detour to Pipersee near Sterley? This almost natural oasis allows camping enthusiasts to pitch their tents and stay a little longer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nature\u2019s Delights Along the M\u00f6llner Chain of Lakes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The medieval town of M\u00f6lln is not only the home of the legendary fool Till Eulenspiegel. It\u2019s also a dream come true for water sports aficionados. M\u00f6lln is situated on a chain of lakes. At the feet of the historic town lie the Stadtsee (City Lake) to the east and Schulsee to the west. M\u00f6llners have been swimming in the picturesque Louisenbad at the Stadtsee for 100 years. The historic bathing area has a diving tower, a water slide, and a football field. Stadtsee is perfect for boating. For instance, you can take the &#8220;MS Till,&#8221; a canal boat, which carries visitors across the lakes or towards the Elbe-L\u00fcbeck Canal. If you prefer to be at the helm yourself, you can rent a conventional boat, a canoe, or even an electric boat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Three sailboats sailing on a lake in the Duchy of Lauenburg\" class=\"wp-image-13602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber-883x1325.jpg 883w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber-293x440.jpg 293w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber-770x1155.jpg 770w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Three sailboats sailing on a lake in the Duchy of Lauenburg\" class=\"wp-image-13602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber-883x1325.jpg 883w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber-293x440.jpg 293w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber-770x1155.jpg 770w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/lakes-lauenburg-sailing-c-KristinWeber.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Kristin Weber<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>By the way: A visit to M\u00f6lln also includes tracing the footsteps of Till Eulenspiegel.
