The Rasende Roland, as it is affectionately called, has been traveling across the island of Rügen at a leisurely top speed of 30 km/h since 1895, connecting the well-known seaside resorts.

Initially a little skeptical, the tour turned out to be a real highlight, including a "lost place" at the dog beach. Stormy seas and bright sunshine made it easy to enjoy the tour. On the ride home to Binz, you can indulge in a leisurely pace on very wide bike paths.

The "Rasende Roland" (Racing Roland) runs between Lauterbach Mole and Göhren. It takes almost an hour and a half to complete the slightly over 24-kilometer route. More information at https://ruegensche-baederbahn.de/rasender-roland/strecke/
