There is no sign of the former border fence today and it is hard to imagine that it was once like that. But the aerial photos on the information board prove it. Nowadays it is a very quiet, idyllic place and a nice place for a short break with rolling lake views.

This is where the border fence once ran through Lake Lankow. This can hardly be seen on the other side of the river.

Difficult to reach with a normal bike.
I managed to get to the spot more or less with my trekking bike.
