Straussee Cable Ferry

Highlight • Bridge

The small ferry, ideal for hikers and cyclists, connects Strausberg with the recreational areas of forest and lakes on the western side of Lake Straussee. The route west from the ferry takes us to the path between Fängersee and Bötzsee. The ferry is probably the only electric cable ferry in Europe and, like a trolleybus, draws its power from a catenary wire stretched across the lake.

Swimming area at Straussee

Highlight • Beach

No matter the season, this swimming spot is always worth a visit. On my last visit in October, I left my swimsuit at home. But my dog enjoyed having my undivided attention all the more. A truly idyllic spot on Lake Straussee!

West shore of the Straussee

Highlight • Lake

The Straussee is a bathing lake with crystal-clear water. Those who like can circumnavigate it in an electric boat or cross it roughly in the middle by ferry.

Lake Straussee

Highlight • Lake

Idyllic lake in Barnim, which is well worth circling. On one side there is Strausberg Stadt (it is also worth a stroll) and on the other side forest. In addition to a swimming pool (on the city side), there are also free swimming spots on the lake. Those who cannot complete a complete circuit can also use the ferry, which is located approximately in the middle of the lake.

From Berlin you can reach the Straussee with the S-Bahn line 5 towards Strausberg Nord to the Strausberg Stadt station.
