Boils are small bodies of water in fields created by dead ice blocks during the Ice Age

The region is very well suited to look at Ice Age remains. It doesn't matter whether it's moraine landscapes, glacial currents or Sölle as remains of dead ice blocks. The legacies of the Vistula glaciation around 10,000 years ago are visible here in many ways!

The region around Angermünde is characterized by traces of the last ice age. Particularly interesting are the salt ponds - small bodies of water that were created by melting blocks of dead ice and are now located in the middle of fields. When hiking through the gently rolling landscape, you will repeatedly discover such ponds, which are silent witnesses to the Weichselian glaciation around 10,000 years ago.

This area offers a wide range of opportunities to explore ice age remains. In addition to the salt ponds, you can also find moraine landscapes and old glacial valleys. The combination of geological history and natural beauty makes the area a worthwhile destination for anyone interested in nature and the landscape.

A walk through this landscape combines the tranquility of nature with insights into the history of the region. The salt ponds are not only geologically remarkable, but also a habitat for various plants and animals, which further underlines the charm of this special place.
