    The Briese is a small, 17 km long, non-navigable tributary of the Havel. The Briese rises on the western Barnim in the Wandlitzer See and then flows through the Rahmer See and the Lubowsee. Its course is largely dictated by a glacial gully. It continues through the Briesewald, an alder forest that used to be called “Der Briesen” and gave the river its name (Slavic breza = birch). Here the Briese also touches the first settlement, the Colony Briese von Birkenwerder residential area, which is a popular excursion destination with Lake Briese as the entrance to the Briesetal nature reserve. The Briese then crosses the center of Birkenwerder and flows into the Havel near the western border of Hohen Neuendorf. The river had economic importance in the past when peat was cut in its area and it powered three water mills between Zühlsdorf and Birkenwerder-Untermühle.

      Not just wild, but a very beautiful, well-preserved nature reserve where no one intervenes. You can discover a lot.
