North shore trail Templiner See between Geltow and Potsdam

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Always along the water - that's Potsdam and the surrounding area. Fantastic, especially when the sun is shining! Varied with some highlights (places, views) along the route and several places to stop for refreshments.

South End of Sacrower See

Highlight • Lake

Very rewarding lake that you can walk around wonderfully. The paths are good and easy to walk on, but not barrier-free. Afterwards, a walk in the Königswald or in the Sacrow Castle Park is worthwhile.

Mauerweg Bridge at Glienicker Lake – Babelsberg

Highlight • Bridge

Fortunately, the wall is now gone. Although some clues can still be seen, it is no longer possible to imagine the real wall.
