Askanier Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

For me, the Werbellinkanal is the absolute highlight. If you are there at the right time of year and the sun is shining optimally through the forest, the Werbellink Canal glows emerald green.

April 27, 2025,Rund um den Werbellinsee

A beautiful tour between forest and lake. It starts at the parking lot before Eichhorst. Plenty of idyllic spots by the water. You won't go hungry or thirsty, either. The elevation profile is quite challenging, though (unless you're on an e-bike). On the east side of Lake Werbellinsee to Joachimsthal, it feels like a steep climb. Unfortunately, the BIORANA observation …

Nice round around the Werbellinsee in the Schorfheide. The route through the forest was great, even in the cloudy weather.

May 6, 2025,Fahrradtour um den Werbelinsee

Today we cycled around Lake Werbelinsee, a beautiful tour through nature along the lakeshore with some inclines, noticeable on an eco bike. A recommended stop is the lakeside terraces at the Seezeit Resort, with a fantastic view of the lake and good value for money, with very good food.

A beautiful area. Unfortunately, it is not always pleasant to "explore" by bike. The bike path on the western side is often damaged, and in the east you have to ride a long stretch on the road.
Unfortunately, I didn't get much enjoyment out of this tour.

This tour around the Werbellinsee is highly recommended. We drove from the A11 to Altenhof. There is a free car park at the entrance to the town. In the town, the excellent fish restaurant on the water immediately catches your eye. After a good 3km, you continue along the water on the L238 country road to Werbellinsee/Joachimsthal. It is worth …

Around Lake Werbellinsee with a visit to the Pioneer Republic "Wilhelm Pieck" (now European Youth Meeting Centre) and a short detour to Lake Grimnitz.
!! Not all paths are suitable for bikes!! (You should stick to the signs "no bike path" - otherwise it will be a hike with your bike on your back ;) (hence the slow average speed …

September 14, 2022,Kleine Runde um den Schwielowsee

Unfortunately, no gas establishment (except for Altenhof) was open on the round. Danger! Do not use the hiking trail on the west bank, it is impassable due to a number of broken trees! So take the road!
