Great cycle path. Nicely wide and with a good surface.

Good cycle path. Those who want to make faster progress can switch to the little-used road.

The section between Zippelsförde and Krännitzmühle is no longer in the best condition. Root protrusions and questionably placed bollards.

The St. George Hospital Chapel was first mentioned in 1362 and is the oldest half-timbered building in the city. The single-nave brick chapel, which was replaced by a half-timbered structure after 1450, acquired its present appearance following repeated repairs and, in particular, after the repair and re-walling in 1818. As of 2023, it belongs to the city-owned Neuruppin Housing Association, after the city of Neuruppin took it over from the dissolved foundation. You can find it at Straße des Friedens 8 in 16816 Neuruppin. https://www.goruma.de/staedte/neuruppin/neuruppin-sehenswuerdigkeiten

Lake Ruppin covers an area of 8.25 km² and is 14 km long, making it the longest lake in Brandenburg. Its maximum depth is approximately 24 m. A roughly 25 km long circular path leads around the lake, inviting hikers and especially cyclists to explore. To the south of the lake lies Wustrau, a village of about 1,100 inhabitants, which is well worth a visit. The lake receives its water from the Rhin River via the Zermützelsee, the Tetzensee, and the Molchowsee at the Altruppin lock, and flows into the Bützsee via the Wustrauer Rhin. https://www.goruma.de/staedte/neuruppin/neuruppin-sehenswuerdigkeiten

The monumental stainless steel sculpture "Parzival am See" (Parzival by the Lake) on the shore of Lake Ruppin is far more than just a work of art; it is a powerful symbol of change and hope. Standing a proud 17 meters tall, Parzival, created by the artist Matthias Zágon Hohl-Stein, was unveiled in 1998 to mark the town's renaming as "Fontanestadt" (Fontane City). The symbolism is particularly striking: In one hand, Parzival holds a windmill, in the other an ark – symbols of progress and preservation. The sculpture represents a new Neuruppin without a garrison, a city on the move, confronting its history while simultaneously looking to the future. An inspiring place that invites reflection – and a fantastic photo opportunity right on the lakeshore. Anyone visiting Neuruppin should definitely take a look at this modern-day knight. https://tourismus-neuruppin.de/kultur-erleben-neuruppin/sehenswertes-neuruppin/119-parzival-am-see-neuruppin

Today, the Ruppiner Tor is used for art exhibitions. The key is available at the neighboring local history museum during opening hours.
