Reaching the southern tip of Peetzigsee is quite a challenge! There's even access to the lake here, but the view isn't as breathtaking as you might have hoped. Swimming is hardly possible here, or at least not enjoyable, because the bottom is soft and muddy.

The rest hut marks a spot where you can easily access Peetzigsee, right at its southern tip. - Warning: Anyone who wants to continue from here, to circumnavigate the lake clockwise, must be prepared for a very narrow, terribly overgrown, and poorly maintained path, and for an unreasonably long stretch! - It's absolutely not suitable for cyclists, and not exactly ideal for hikers either! You can push your bike sometimes, but even that's very difficult here.

We are at the top of the vineyard, but unfortunately it is unclear where exactly the excavations took place (most recently in 2020). There is no information about this on site! Nevertheless, it is very interesting to get an impression for yourself. After all, the high vineyard offers great views of the Uckermark's top landscape. The last skeleton discovery at the vineyard was only in 2020, the first in 1962. According to all available information, the site is the oldest burial ground in all of Germany. Scientific dating showed an age between approx. 6400 BC and approx. 5000 BC. This Mesolithic burial site with a total of 12 people discovered was therefore used over an astonishingly long period of time. Anthropological comparisons also provided new insights into the cultural transition from the Mesolithic to the Neolithic, which was already characterized by agriculture and livestock farming. In contrast, people previously were mostly not sedentary.

Wide view to the west. However, it is recommended to leave your bike in Groß Fredenwalde and climb up to the vineyard on foot.

There were several excavations on the vineyard of Groß Fredenwalde to find out that: https://www.nd-aktuell.de/artikel/1172337.uckermark-gross-fredenwalde-archaeologische-schaetze-vom-weinberg.html

Nice swimming area here. There are enough shady spots. There is enough seating available. Cooling off briefly in the lake is great.
