If it's been dry for a long time, it gets extremely dusty there.
You should then reconsider driving there.

Old Greifswald Towpath

Highlight • Trail

If the chain is freshly oiled, I would avoid this beautiful route. The red dust settles on everything that sticks when it is very dry.

Nice path on the Ryck with mobile gravel (also with 23 tires). Not recommended in wet weather, as this creates a lot of puddles and mud. A lot of excursion traffic with pedestrians is to be expected at the weekend.

A very nice tour along a trail always with a view of the water. Suitable for a short trip in the evening, as you can also linger on one of the many benches along the way. The bridge in Wieck is worth seeing and interesting when it opens.
