シャルミュツェル湖の湖・トップ20

Beautifully developed cycle paths.

To mark the 200th anniversary of Fontane's birthday in 2019, sixteen panels with quotes from Theodor Fontane were erected on the peninsula covered in deciduous forest. The Berlin writer and journalist passed by here on his Easter hike through the Mark Brandenburg in 1881. The quotes were cut into panels made of Corten steel using laser technology and screwed onto concrete slabs. The highlight is a steel telescope entitled "View into Nothingness". It refers to a sentence by Fontane from 1881: "There is nothing in Saarow, I know that, and here in Pieskow there is nothing at all."

The Ludwig Lesser Promenade runs along the edge of the spa park along the lakeshore. It is named after the Berlin landscape architect who planned the park in Bad Saarow around 1910. Here, like a string of pearls, you will find the pavilion, the lakeside balcony, the Kursaal with restaurant terraces and the jetty of the Kurfürstenterrassen, as well as many other sights.

The Scharmützelsee appears peaceful on this sunny late October day. Incidentally, it is not named after a brief military conflict, but rather takes its name from the Middle Low German corruption of the Old Sorbian word for buckthorn, Čremušn. Brandenburg's second largest lake is ten kilometers long, up to one and a half kilometers wide and a maximum of 29 meters deep.

No matter which side: the lake is always enchanting for me ☺️

good opportunities to rest and great kiosks with a lot of choice

Ride through beautiful natural landscape on very good cycle paths.

Driving along the lake shore is simply beautiful and there is a lot to discover. A short break to eat a fish sandwich is one option
