Grevenkrug

Berlin, the country's capital, is situated 180 miles (290 kilometers) southeast of Grevenkrug, while Hamburg is 45 miles (72 kilometers) to the south.

When it comes to getting the best from your time here, keep in mind that Grevenkrug is just the tip of the iceberg; Schleswig-Holstein is home to a treasure-trove of scenic wonders. Why not head out to the Bordesholm Monastery and Museum for Geological History in Bordesholm, approximately 3 miles (5 kilometers) away. If you are ready for even more, head to Kiel for the Sparkassen-Arena and Kiel Opera House. Kiel is approximately 9 miles (14 kilometers) from Grevenkrug.

While you are on vacation in Grevenkrug, don't forget to spend a few hours exploring Luebeck. Approximately 35 miles (56 kilometers) away, this regional city is where you'll find Travemuende Ferry Port, Museum Holstentor and Theater Figuren Museum. Hansapark and Museum of Nature and the Environment are some other attractions to see for those who have time left.

For a budget outdoors activity that will interest the entire family, be sure to check out the region's popular gardens and lighthouses. Schleswig-Holstein features some important cathedrals and other places of worship, perfect places to get a feel for Grevenkrug's gentler side.

When you hear the call to adventure, do as the locals do and spend the day hiking or mountain climbing. This spot has a number of places for canoeing, so make sure you leave room in your schedule to fit it in. Fishing is another watersport here.

When it is time to leave Grevenkrug, use the last of your euros on last minute keepsakes and say Tschüss (farewell).
