Kartbahn Schleswig

Kartbahn Schleswig runs a 620-metre outdoor layout that takes up to 15 karts at once, at Heinrich-Hertz-Straße 13-15, in Schleswig, at the head of the Schlei fjord. The venue relies on leisure and events, with an After Work Race formula every Wednesday at 6pm, a slot designed for local drivers on their way home from work.

On site, the venue sells gift vouchers, organises group and corporate events, and accepts payment by debit card, but not by credit card. The track opens Monday, Saturday and Sunday 12pm to 6pm, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday 2pm to 6pm, and stays closed on Tuesday. Access is from 1.40 m, provided the pedals can be reached, and the details are confirmed at [email protected] or on +49 4621 307550.

Schleswig lies at the western tip of the Schlei fjord, that 42 km-long Baltic inlet, 50 km north of Kiel, 35 km south of Flensburg and 130 km north of Hamburg. Gottorf Castle, a Renaissance ducal residence, houses one of the largest art and history museums in Schleswig-Holstein, with the Nydam Viking boat and the reconstructed Gottorf globe. Saint Peter's cathedral keeps the Hans Brüggemann altarpiece with its 392 figures, the Holm fishing quarter stretches out on its peninsula, and the Viking sites of Haithabu and the Danewerk, UNESCO-listed, tell of one of the great trading posts of the north in the Viking age. Flensburg is 35 km to the north and the Danish border 50 km away.
