Mountaineering

The inner German border once ran through the two-country region. There is also a special stamp from the HWN here.

Cycling

The Grenzweg is a scenic single trail. Better for MTB, but also works with a stable touring bike, as some parts are rooted.

Great place as a reminder of the history of the border between FRG and GDR.
