Themed bike tour for the whole family: Every Wednesday (from April through October), the Grömitz Bike Guide leads a guided bike tour around Grömitz, starting from the pier plaza. The tour starts at 10:00 a.m. each time, and the group returns to the starting point around 1:30 p.m.

Every first Wednesday of the month, the tour heads to the Hasselburg Mill, where a guided tour awaits all participants. Every third Wednesday, the destination is the Hasselburg Estate, where a guided tour of the grounds and the manor house is also planned. On the second Wednesday of the month, the bike tour heads to the Lensahn Museum Farm, where you can immerse yourself in the history of agriculture, and on the fourth Wednesday, the route winds “haphazardly”—depending on the wind direction—through the East Holstein countryside.

Once a month (from May through October), our bike guide leads a guided e-bike tour starting from the area in front of the lake pier, covering a distance of approximately 60 kilometers. The tour begins at 10:00 a.m. and ends around 4:00 p.m. at the starting point.

Dates: May 15, June 12, July 3, August 14, September 11

There are countless exciting destinations to explore around Grömitz. Depending on the wind direction, guide Reinhard Bendfeldt chooses the destination. Heiligenhafen, the Oldenburg Wall Museum, and Eutin with its impressive open-air stage are just a few examples.

The tour begins right at the entrance to Grömitz at the Schneekloth Fruit Farm—a true family hotspot that promises fun in nature no matter the weather. In addition to fresh cherries, raspberries, apples, and Grömitz honey, the farm offers other regional delicacies as part of its country-style breakfast, as well as homemade cakes and pastries for those with a sweet tooth. Kids can even explore the large fruit orchard on a pony.  

At the Scheunencafé and Hofladen Hagen, located between Grömitz and Cismar, guests on their bike tour around Grömitz can look forward to petting animals, a beautiful barn, and a cozy courtyard garden. Here, you can fully enjoy a wonderful summer day with a cup of coffee and a slice of cream cake.

Speaking of coffee: Have you heard of Backside Coffee? Right in the “Dünenpark,” you can enjoy a cup of freshly roasted coffee here and let your gaze wander toward the distant horizon. American treats like apple pie or New York cheesecake are worth every calorie. It’s the perfect starting point to set off on a bike tour of the region, well-fueled and ready to explore.

The Mougin Farm, just before Cismar, not only offers a rustic atmosphere but also plenty of delicacies such as homemade pies and cakes, fresh strawberries, and asparagus. This family-run business even offers vacation rentals for a true farm-stay experience. Very close by, in Grube, you’ll find the Dat Achtere Rahland farm café: While enjoying a little chat, you can feast on the full range of northern cuisine on the sunny farm terrace and then stock up in the small shop on whatever tasted especially good or looked particularly appealing.

The Klostersee Organic Farm also offers idyllic accommodations and regional organic products. This sustainable farm is located just 2.5 km from a beautiful natural sandy beach, and right behind it lies the Kellenhusen Forest with its ancient oak trees. In addition to fresh pastries and breads every day, you’ll even find a cheese dairy on the sprawling grounds. Our suggestion: Feast first, stretch your legs, and then just keep feasting.

In the neighboring town of Kellenhusen, “Mudder” Holstein offers a wide selection of local foods and products from Schleswig-Holstein. From the perfect ingredients for breakfast to everything you need for a barbecue, locals and tourists alike will find everything their culinary hearts desire here.

Don’t feel like biking quite that far? Then why not stop by the Bauer Böckmann farm stand in Cismar and pick up some fresh eggs, apples, potatoes, or strawberries to take home? You’ll also find a beautiful selection of flowers and decorations to admire here. Another regional highlight awaits you nearby: at the Grimm Apple Farm, wonderfully juicy apples ripen in the Baltic Sea climate. Here, the coastal apples grow under natural conditions—and that’s exactly how they taste. You definitely shouldn’t miss this. Tip: The fresh apple juice is also available in a 5-liter bulk pack to take home.  

The Schütt Vegetable Farm in Lensterbek offers an abundance of crisp, homegrown vegetables. From the five large greenhouses and the farm’s own fields, it’s just a few steps to the small farm stand—here, you definitely know where your food comes from. For 56 years, everything at the Schütt family farm has revolved around vegetables—this family-run business is always worth a visit.
