Beautifully designed trail of legends with all sorts of stories 😉 that are said to have happened. Numerous sculptures and a wonderful path under the oak trees towards the hunting lodge. The path is a bit bumpy, but still easy to cycle. During the week, the whole area is yours. Meaning, no other people around.

A very nice place to linger, in the middle of nature, with the gentle rippling of the spring

The source here is located in the northern part of the Wockersee and west of the Wocker tributary.

Iron oxide was found deposited at this spring. This can be seen in the pipe and the stones, which have a reddish color. However, there is so little that it is not a mineral spring. The measurement of the nitrate content showed a low value, so the water quality is good. The pH value showed a value between and 8. This is an alkaline value. Therefore, this spring can be described as an alkaline spring.

Here you can find information about the Landwehr in this region around Parchim, as well as the history of the Dömitz-Parchim cycle path from 1991

much to discover on this path

If you don't scroll the map up, it looks like there's a bridge here. At least, that's what I thought when I arrived here from the north and wanted to continue on Banzkower Damm. Unfortunately, there isn't a bridge here, so I found myself standing in front of the canal and couldn't go any further... I then cycled south between the fishponds to cross the canal. In retrospect, the better option would have been to take the Gaartzer Bridge heading north. It does have steps, but that's definitely the better route. I'll be wiser for next time. 😉 Here's a link to the Gaartzer Bridge: https://www.komoot.de/plan/@53.4966970,11.5613310,13.000z?sport=touringbicycle&waypoint=hl:312508

The legendary world of the Lewitz is teeming with dragons, mythical creatures, and all sorts of secrets from the history of Germany's largest meadow landscape. Along the trail, there are a total of 16 stations, each dedicated to a specific legend. Artists have created statues for each station, and the legend can be read on panels or accessed as an audio play via QR code. There are discovery activities for children, and information about the forest and nature is conveyed in a playful way. The starting and finishing point is the Friedrichsmoor hunting lodge, and the trail is suitable for hikers and cyclists. An enchanted meadow and forest landscape like the Lewitz naturally inspires fairy tales and legends. There are stories of white women roaming across foggy fields, of the Wild Hunt roaring along country paths at night, and of magnificent white stags emerging from the thickets of mighty oaks and beeches. Legends usually have a kernel of truth and lead back to the time when the Lewitz was settled by Slavs or to the time of the Napoleonic Wars. On the "Legendary Lewitz" forest adventure trail (12 km cycle path or 4 km hiking trail), visitors can learn about the landscape's mythical world. At 16 stations, experience and discovery stations allow visitors to get to the bottom of the myths. Furthermore, knowledge about nature is imparted in a playful way. https://www.auf-nach-mv.de/reiseziele/a-walderlebnispfad-friedrichsmoor
