Wooden Bridge Over the Ostpeene

Highlight • Bridge

Great place. Great bridge. The further way is a bit adventurous. OK with the Gravel / MTB, but not recommended with e-city bikes.

Parking Area for Peenetal Loop

Highlight • Parking

If you come by car, you can park here. There is no infrastructure whatsoever. The path from the main road is getting narrower and narrower, you have to be very brave. After that it's over. If you want to run the Peenetal circuit, you can also consider parking in Demzin. Is on the way.

After Warnow, Mildenitz, Radebach and Nebel, here is another breakthrough valley in MV. Highly recommended: you walk through the primeval forest of the Peenetal as well as over beautiful meadows with many wide views of the landscape

Start and finish is the hikers' car park in the street "Peenhäuser".
The tour runs mainly through the forest and past rapeseed fields.
A small highlight are the two old manor houses on the tour.

Includes about 1km of road.
