The federal highway 404 / federal highway 21 runs three kilometers to the west from Bad Segeberg to Kiel , ten kilometers south the federal highway 206 from Bad Segeberg to Lübeck.

history
The place was called Bulilunkin by Adam von Bremen around 1075 in the description of the Sachsenwall and mentioned as Bolunke in a document of the Diocese of Lübeck from March 27, 1249. From 1342 there was a flour mill in which the farmers had to have their grain ground.
Due to several fires, some of them severe, towards the end of the 19th century, very little old building fabric can be found today.
The church in Blunk was built in 1965. However, it was demolished in 2010 and the property has become private property.
From December 1911 to December 1961, Blunk was a station on the Kiel – Segeberger Railway. After the railway operations had ceased, the tracks were dismantled as early as 1962. Today there is a hotel with a restaurant in the existing station building.
