Attractions and Places To See around Pätzer Hintersee - Top 11

Very nice and quiet location!

Circular route around the Pätz lakes The circular route around the Pätzer Vordersee and Hintersee is a little over 16 kilometers long. It's a trail for all seasons. The start and finish is at the train station “Bestensee”. The path leads along the main road fromBestensee to Pätzer Vordersee and on to Pätz with its historic village green. The place name comes from the Slavic and means something like sand. From here we continue into pure nature! A hundred years ago, the hillsides on the east bank of the Pätzer Hintersee were almost free of forest. A few junipers bear witness to the sparse heathland that once existed here. The lowlands with wet meadows are preserved with the support of landscape conservation. On the southern shore of the Pätzer Hintersee there are large moor areas that have been secured as a nature reserve. The path now leads north. An idiosyncratic pine forest with crooked trees is called Schweinewinkel. This is where the pigs used to be driven into the forest to the Waldwiede. Walking through the Pätz Hintersee settlement, you return to the starting point at the train station.

Nice for a picnic and rest

Information board on the Paul-Gerhardt-Weg with a possibility to rest

I can only agree with many here. Cycling is no fun here. Especially when there are (once again) traffic jams or construction sites on the motorway. A normal country road is sometimes even less dangerous because it is at least wider. So you either have cars and trucks (!) overtaking without a gap, or you have them breathing down your neck because they kindly wait for the next turnaround. The section is also narrower than the Hofjagdweg from Märkisch Buchholz to Groß Wasserburg, which is also open to mixed traffic. Relaxed cycling is not really possible here. That's really a shame, because the path makes a difference in terms of landscape. Should the county urgently change. Especially if this was built as an expansion of the cycling infrastructure... Experience 03/2022: On a Sunday in spring without any disruption on the Autobahn, it was actually very nice to drive this way. Only on the part ofBestenseer Straße - B246 is there always a lot of (reckless) car traffic. It is sad that this is already positive and unfortunately this is still the exception... The bicycle road with appropriate protection is really desirable and urgent.

very nice resting place on Paul-Gerhardt-Weg

There is currently even a warning about the Hofjagdweg: "Due to construction work, there is increased traffic on the Hofjagdweg on the section between the Krummensee exit and Groß Köris entrance. The narrow width of the road does not allow the prescribed minimum distance between cars and cyclists Driving on the section, especially with children, is strongly discouraged until further notice!
