Situation November 2025: no chance of crossing the bridge. Construction work is still in full swing. Maybe it's possible on weekends if you sneak through.

From here, the Rhin flows through pristine nature. A beautiful canoe.

This bathing spot at the lower end of Lake Ruppin near Alt Friesack is particularly charming and offers plenty of space. Plenty of sun as needed, or shade from larger trees. Stunningly beautiful rocks along the shoreline don't interfere with entering the water. There are many niches. In fact, there are several bathing spots lined up next to each other here. Note: It's also a real highlight as a viewing point. Treading water would be a good alternative, as the entrance is quite shallow.

Not the Rhine, but the Rhin flows through the bridge there!

A well-developed route between the fields. There are turnoffs to the lake.

This is the way to Lake Molchow. A quiet body of water with some lovely swimming spots.

There are hardly any examples of this left in Brandenburg. A little Dutch style.
