Great route along the lagoon. Fantastic view of the nature reserve. The bike path is a bit narrow when many cyclists meet.

September 2, 2023,Zum Leuchtturm Darsser Ort
Today a slightly further ADFC tour to the Darsser Ort lighthouse. Six cyclists from Rostock and a guest from Berlin set off. In contrast to last year, the quality of the paths in the national park has improved significantly. This is particularly evident in the Rehberge, where you would otherwise have to push your bike because of the high sand. …

A really sporty tour!

First we took the ferry from Warnemünde to Hohe Düne. From there we cycled across Gral Müritz to the Darß lighthouse. Afterwards we enjoyed Ruth's warm hospitality and took a break with coffee and cake in her lovely garden.

Then we went back to Warnemünde.

Many thanks to the tour leader Reiner.

A wonderful day!

It was colder at times than in winter, but onward, onward, and now I was in Prerow. I'd actually planned to see the new pier and the emergency harbor for a long time – better late than never!

I joined four cyclists who started their Darssrunde in Ahrenshopp. On the way home, someone must have noticed that the bike and its owner were pretty dusty and graciously turned on the heavenly shower🌨

Today, in perfect weather, we headed from Rostock/Rövershagen through the Fischland/Darß National Park to Prerow and back along the Bodden, past dream beaches and dream houses! 👌☀️🤩
For me, one of the most beautiful spots on the Baltic coast. 😏

I made a fool of myself the other day.
A photo in status should be captioned "Where are we?" the appropriate port to be assigned to the Darss and I was wrong. Grrr!


Now that the off-season is over, it should be possible to do a relaxed round via Dändorf, Dierhagen, Wustrow, Althagen (Ahrenshoop), Born, Wieck, Prerow and their ports. …

Today the tour was about showing our friends places with which we are very connected. Markgrafenheide with the great beach and the campsite. Our youth and then the Darss with a visit to friends
