Müritz National Park Cycle Path

Wonderful cycle paths lead through the Müritz National Park; you can drive here completely relaxed and let nature work its magic on you. There are also rest areas and a great place to stop for a break.

This part was for us the last section of our Müritz tour. It is part of the Müritzrundweg and charms by its nature. As it is, of course you have no photo of this path.

With an area of over 320 square kilometers, the Müritz National Park, founded in 1990, is the largest terrestrial national park in Germany, is almost three quarters covered by forest and has around 100 lakes and many smaller still bodies of water.

The larger sub-area Müritz extends southeast from Waren (Müritz) in the eastern hinterland of the Müritz to Neustrelitz in the east and Wesenberg in the south. The Serrahn sub-area in the east of the national park forms the transition from the Mecklenburg Lake District to the Feldberg Lake District. It is surrounded by the Feldberg Lake District Nature Park.The gently undulating landscape of the national park was shaped by the Vistula Ice Age.
