Schleswig-Holsteinische Landesforsten, State forestry authority in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany

Schleswig-Holsteinische Landesforsten is a public enterprise, founded on 1 January 2008, that manages almost 50,000 of Schleswig-Holstein's 173,412 hectares of forest from its headquarters in Neumünster. It is divided into 31 forestry offices (as of 2019) and runs the Trappenkamp adventure forest and the youth forest homes in Süderlügum and Hartenholm.

The organization was founded in 2008 when a traditional forest administration was transformed into a public enterprise. This change marked a shift toward modern sustainable forest management practices in northern Germany.

The ErlebnisWald Trappenkamp center teaches visitors about forest ecosystems and runs environmental programs year-round. You can learn about nature through hands-on activities and interactive displays.

Visitors can explore marked hiking trails and join guided forest tours led by rangers. Holiday homes near the Baltic Sea provide accommodation options for those planning extended visits.

The organization operates special burial forests where people can choose trees as final resting places. The FriedWald in Kisdorf is a notable example where burials take place within natural forest settings.
