During our tour, cattle grazed in the meadows, creating an idyllic scene.

Unfortunately, we were out of luck; it was closed.

There are several hiking trails in the area, including a 1.9-kilometer, easy loop around the lake, which takes about 30 minutes and features botanical highlights and forest sections. Longer walks are also possible, such as the 3-kilometer loop around the Amtssee lake, right next to the monastery.

The monastery cemetery, located immediately north of the monastery church, is one of the most important collections of forestry burial grounds in Germany and has served as a burial site since 1281. It contains approximately 50 graves, more than half of which belong to foresters, and is also the final resting place of notables such as the architect Max Taut, who was buried there in 1967.

The Nettelgraben was created in the 13th century by the Cistercian monks of Chorin Monastery to drain Lake Parstein via Lake Weißer See and Lake Chorin Amtssee with the Ragöse River. The ditch originally served to supply the monastery and the monastery mills with sufficient water, as the natural outflow of Lake Chorin was insufficient.
