Bivouac site at the wooden bridge Mönchwinkel on the Müggelspree

A minimal bivouac site directly on the Spree. No electricity, no running water, no fees. Hikers, paddlers and cyclists can legally pitch their tent here for the night. Fire pit and a wooden bench plus table are available. There is a small swimming access to the Spree.

Hello dear nature tourists. In the meantime, the operator of the place, the Fürstenwalde city forestry department, had to pull the rope a bit. Since many people continue to arrive in their cars, even though it says everywhere, including in Komoot, that this shouldn't be the case, a far-reaching parking ban has now been issued and a security service is on site all day to check. In addition, police and fire brigade operations have been necessary again and again , because a lot of tourists lit campfires not only at the bivouac site, but also later in the landscape protection area, sometimes directly in the forest. Unfortunately, garbage is often left lying around where there are no garbage containers. The locals wonder why they can't simply take the empty leftover packaging home with them if they bring it with them.
In summary, the current status is as follows:
- Hikers, cyclists and canoeists are still very welcome
- Camping is only possible on the designated site for 1 night
- Camping and lighting fires is prohibited further along the meadow
- Motorhomes and camping vans are not allowed, it is not a campsite
- The toilet installed is cleaned regularly and is clean, so it can be used
- The forestry, police and public order offices are now constantly checking with the support of the security service, which is usually present

I hope everyone has understood the downside, the locality is looking forward to the insight and to a little better understanding from users in the future.
Thank you!

A very nice place to relax. But a lot of people already know that. The place was well attended today.
