Püttsee

Püttsee on Fehmarn combines nature experiences, exercise, and water sports in a manageable setting.

The Petersdorf–Orth–Püttsee running route

For active days, the Petersdorf–Orth–Püttsee running route is a good option. It is 12.0 km long and designed as an out-and-back route for jogging. The route leads from Petersdorf via Kopendorf and Sulsdorf to Orth and then back via Püttsee. This makes it clearly a longer run, which should be taken into account when planning your day.

Along the way, the route follows the dike with views of Flügge Lighthouse. Other sections lead between fields and meadows. It is precisely this change between the dike, open landscapes, and the places mentioned above that makes the route an opportunity to experience Püttsee not just as a brief stop, but as part of an extended run. The running route can be reached by car or bicycle. If you would like to include exercise in your travel plans, you can factor in the 12.0 km distance from the outset when choosing your accommodation and organizing your daily schedule.

Natural beach and water sports

Püttsee natural beach is suited to travelers who would like to combine their stay with time by the water. You can park directly at the beach. You can also take your surfboard onto the water there. The Püttsee surf spot is suitable for surfers and kiters, offering another way to discover the area beyond the running route through dikes, fields, and meadows.

These various activities appeal to different preferences for the day. If you would like to jog in the morning, the long out-and-back route can be the focus. If, on the other hand, you prefer water sports, you can make the natural beach and surf spot the main destinations of your travel plans. For a group with different interests, it may be helpful to choose accommodation based on the desired focus of the stay, without limiting the holiday to just one activity.

Natural landscape on Fehmarn

A special feature of Püttsee’s landscape is that parts of the Püttsee district on Fehmarn lie within a nature reserve covering around 395 hectares. This approximate figure should be understood as an indication of the scale. Together with the natural beach and the landscape sections along the running route, this creates a destination where nature is not merely a backdrop, but a tangible part of various activities.

Depending on whether you focus on jogging, surfing, kitesurfing, or spending time at the natural beach, you can plan your holiday days in different ways. The available information about the area provides specific points of reference without prescribing a fixed itinerary.
