Coastal forest trail in the Stoltera nature reserve

Highlight • Trail

At this time of year (spring), it's a beautiful place for walking, hiking, and cycling. Carpets of wood anemones and the beginnings of green on the trees and bushes. Just sit down on the bench and take a rest!

A beautiful ride along the Baltic Sea. We had to put on our rain gear in the ghost forest.

Always a nice tour from Börgerende to Warnemünde and back.
The ghost forest is a highlight at any time of the year.
Finally, a visit to the Broiler Bar in the Neptun Hotel. It's worth it even if you have to wait a little.😀
