ツィルテンドルフのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

From the clay pits near the grinding mill (on the Pohlitz Mühlenfließ), raw clay was transported by field railway to the large ring kiln of the Maaß brickworks on the Oder-Spree Canal. (Source: Eisenhüttenstadt and its Surroundings, Klaus-Dieter Gansleweit, Akademie-Verlag Berlin, 1986)

In the middle of the Brandenburg Forest, where the pines filter the light with their long needles and the blackberry vines have long since taken over, it still stands – a picnic shelter seemingly out of time. The wood is weathered, the roof crooked – and yet: a place made for a sandwich with a view. No Instagram filter can convey what this place has to say. The journey here isn't an event, but a transition. Old waterworks paths, the occasional crackling in the woods, an information board that has long since fallen silent. You don't come for the view, you come because you don't want to be seen for a change. And that's precisely why this shelter is so beautiful. It stands there as if it no longer wants to prove anything to anyone – and in doing so, it's doing exactly the right thing. The wood creaks when you sit down. The wind plays with the roof, as if testing whether it will hold today. And the stream that flows through the grounds somewhere back there doesn't make a sound. Anyone who sits here not only has a break, but also a moment of clarity: The world is complicated – but a wooden bench in the forest can be quite simple. Perhaps a buzzard will pass by. Maybe just a mosquito. Maybe you just stay seated because there's nothing to do. And at some point you realize: That's enough.

Lost Place on the Wayside

Unfortunately, it's quite crowded on weekends. Best viewed during the week

A very nice place for a rest.

It would be interesting if someone took a photo here every year...

Such works of nature have a magical attraction for me. Does anyone else enjoy balancing on tree trunks like this? With no mosquitoes, the place is wonderfully relaxing.

There is a large picnic area on the Kingfisher Trail, which is ideal for school classes and larger groups. The rest area is in the forest and is covered by a sturdy wooden structure, which offers protection from sun and rain. This rest area creates a cozy atmosphere that is perfect for a relaxing break during the hike. The spacious space, which is also sufficient for larger hiking groups, is particularly practical. An ideal place to enjoy nature together and relax after a walk.
