Sulsdorf on Fehmarn: Nature and Tours

On Fehmarn, Sulsdorf has several different local connections: the Krummsteert-Sulsdorfer Wiek/Fehmarn nature reserve includes areas used for agriculture in parts of the Sulsdorf cadastral district, a walking route passes through the village, and two e-bike tours pass through it. The route to Flügge Lighthouse also goes via Sulsdorf. When choosing a destination, it is worth distinguishing these details by landscape, route and excursion destination; they do not describe a single shared route.

Landscape and nature reserve

On Fehmarn, the Krummsteert-Sulsdorfer Wiek/Fehmarn nature reserve includes areas used for agriculture in parts of the Sulsdorf cadastral district. The protected-area designation therefore includes agricultural use; geographically, it refers to parts of the cadastral district, not the entire village. For travelers who take nature conservation and land use into account when choosing a destination, this connection is a specific aspect of Sulsdorf.

Walking route and e-bike tours

The Petersdorf–Orth–Püttsee walking route runs from Petersdorf via Kopendorf and Sulsdorf to Orth, then returns via Püttsee. Sulsdorf is therefore on the outbound route between Kopendorf and Orth, while Püttsee is part of the return leg. This sequence helps you distinguish the walking route from the e-bike details and understand how the village fits into your own excursion plans.

Two separate e-bike route descriptions are relevant for cycling. One tour starts in Burg and passes through the Krummsteert-Sulsdorfer Wiek nature reserve, as well as through Sulsdorf and Lemkenhafen. Another, 28-kilometer e-bike tour through southern Fehmarn also passes through Sulsdorf. The descriptions emphasize different details: the first includes its starting point, connection to the nature reserve and other named places; the second specifies its total length and its location in the south of the island. The 28-kilometer distance applies only to this second tour. So when comparing routes for a stay, you can distinguish them by route or stated distance without combining the descriptions into a single tour.

Lighthouse and directions

The stated route to Flügge Lighthouse runs via Petersdorf, Sulsdorf and Püttsee. It can be compared with the walking route by looking at the place names they share: Petersdorf is at the beginning of both descriptions, while Püttsee appears on the walking route’s return leg and after Sulsdorf on the route to the lighthouse. This places Sulsdorf in two different planning contexts. If the lighthouse is part of your travel plans, this sequence of places is a separate point of reference alongside the walking route and e-bike tours.

The “Alte Dorfstraße” public transport stop is located in Sulsdorf. For specific bus planning, check the current timetable before traveling to make sure your plans suit your chosen travel date.

When looking for a hotel in Sulsdorf, you can first decide which local connection will shape your stay: a walk, an e-bike tour, the landscape or a visit to the lighthouse. The route details can help you compare options with your destination; check specific hotel offers to suit your travel dates and requirements.
