The Granitz forest area in the south-east of the island is one of the most popular hiking regions on Rügen. The visual aisles in the riparian forest are interesting

The Granitz forest area on the island of Rügen

The 982-hectare Granitz forest area, which is a nature reserve, is located in the south-east of Rügen, between the Baltic Sea resorts …

The Granitz is Rügen's second largest forest area and has never been cleared. It is mainly home to beech trees and a few sprinklings. These fragments include a princely hunting lodge with a princely tower with a princely view.

The prince belonging to the hunting lodge was Wilhelm Malte. I. of Putbus, he had it built between 1837 and 1851. …

Starting again in Binz, along the high bank path in the direction of Granitz Castle, with a climb of the tower and a subsequent stop at the castle. Back through the forest to Binz to the natural beach.

Despite the drizzle, a nice trip to the hunting lodge in Granitz. After visiting the castle (2G + and reduced € 4 p.p., unfortunately the tower could not be climbed😞) we strengthened ourselves a little in the “Alte Brennerei” inn. ☕️🍰A beautiful vaulted cellar, great atmosphere and delicious apple pie ...

Despite the drizzle, a successful excursion.
Beautiful forest paths, a visit to the castle and a short break with delicious coffee and cake in the castle cellar.

Very idyllic hiking trail to the castle. There are themed tours of the castle itself, so it's worth making a reservation by phone in advance.

I've been to Rügen a few times but never at Granitz Castle.

And now I know why: not mine.

The little animals in picture 8 come from OOOOOBEN 👆 🌳.

At the end there were rabbits to watch again 🐇🐇.
