In the Nossinter / Schwinzer Heide Nature Park, you can expect vast pine forests, lakes, moors, dunes, wet meadows, dry grasslands, heaths, and quiet villages. About 60 percent of the area is forest, which is managed in a natural way. The remaining land is used for agriculture. Almost all of the lakes are managed by four fishing companies. You can enjoy fresh fish in restaurants, buy it directly, or even fish for yourself.
Important goals include the restoration of moors and rivers and visitor management. The park is a European Bird Sanctuary with 143 breeding bird species, including white-tailed eagles, ospreys, and great bitterns. Otters and many rare plants also call this area home.
Educational and adventure trails offer fascinating information about nature. You can also learn more about the region in museums such as the Goldberg Local History Museum, the Alt Schwerin Agricultural History Museum, or the Karower Meiler Cultural and Information Center.
