Berlin's largest lake is Müggelsee in Köpenick – and it was precisely this that we had to circumnavigate.

The starting point was the Rübezahl parking lot. From there, the path led to the lake and then to the right towards the Müggelhorst ferry dock – a beautiful, shady path right by the water. If you miss the hourly (and seasonal) …

June 24, 2023,Berlin: loop trip around Großer Müggelsee from Friedrichshagen

The F24 ferry line is a special feature of Berlin: the crossing is done by rowing boat.
During the summer months, the historic link between Kruggasse and Spreewiesen that was put into operation in 1911 is extremely popular with day-trippers and locals, who are spared the long detours.
Only twelve strokes of the oar are needed to cross. It is …

Circumnavigating the Müggelsee gently leads me to places and memories from my past. I have walked some passages all too often and especially cycled them, so they are familiar to me. Some things remain in my memory as special experiences.

I've never been to Müggelsee, and I'm changing that today!🌊
I start the walk in Friedrichshagen around nine o'clock and first hike to the Müggelturm on Kleiner Müggelberg. Operations there begin at ten o'clock sharp, and I enjoy the view of Müggelsee, the TV tower, and BER Airport.
Through the Teufelsseemoor and past Teufelssee, back to the southern shore of …

April 18, 2025,🦆⛵um den Müggelsee - von Friedrichshagen 🌳🥚

It's been my plan for a while: a walk around Lake Müggelsee. Today, it's considerably cooler than the last few days and overcast, but it's perfect hiking weather 😃. The wind on Lake Müggelsee even made the ferry sway 😵, but luckily the ride is only short! At the end, it even got a bit Easter-like on the Bölsche.

A nice round around the Müggelsee, only the encounters with the cyclists were sometimes annoying. But that was certainly due to the beautiful bathing weather.
