シャプロー湖のおすすめMTBライド

少なくともほとんどの場合、風からより保護されている素敵な小さな港。

Selchow Castle, built in 1913 as a bourgeois summer residence for a prominent industrialist, is situated directly adjacent to the Gross-Schauener-Seenkette nature reserve. Now, the 1,200 m² villa with its 2-hectare park offers the comforts of a boutique hotel, including a 150 m² spa (sauna/cold plunge pool), cinema, bar, library, fireplace, and billiards.

It looks like a mistake of nature – and yet is a masterpiece of survival. Wolzig's burr pine stands like an ancient dancer, balancing barefoot on tiptoes, its exposed roots digging into the sand like fingers. For a hundred years, it has defied wind and man, rain and dune retreat – and seems to have only grown stronger. Here, in the midst of the Brandenburg pine sea, this tree speaks of steadfastness. Of adaptation. And of the quiet dignity of one who does not complain, but grows. Everyone who stands before it suddenly falls silent. Perhaps because they sense: This pine has understood more about life than many a person with sturdy shoes.

There is always something to see here

Beautiful bridge and great surroundings

Since 2009, where ferrymen once offered their services, residents and tourists have been able to cross the river on foot or by bike using the pylon cable-stayed bridge. With a length of over 200 meters (span across the Dahme: 45 meters), a 21-meter-high pylon and a width of 2.60 meters, it is one of the largest German cycle and pedestrian bridges. It was only thanks to it that the Dahme cycle path could be realized.

The lock, which has existed since 1865, was renovated in 1965 with concrete chamber walls and automated in 2004. The lock is activated using the request levers at the waiting points in the respective outer harbor. During operation in the summer months, up to 10,000 pleasure boats are on the move here. It is one of three locks that must be overcome on the way from Berlin to Scharmützelsee.

You can at least see it in the distance 🙃
