The Griebnitz Canal was created in 1901-1906 at the same time as the Teltow Canal by connecting individual existing lakes. It should serve tourism and improve the water quality of the lakes.

March 8, 2025,🇩🇪 Griebnitzsee loop

What a beautiful day of "Fool's Spring" ☀️ The houses are beautiful but I preferred the forest side, where we heard a woodpecker and eventually spotted a black woodpecker working away.

June 23, 2022,Potsdam - Griebnitzsee – Teltowkanal * Runde von S-Bahnhof Griebnitzsee, mit Bea (3.x) - ☆

The Gribnitzsee merges into the Teltow Canal... or is it the other way round? The green forest side of the lake is wonderfully shady even in sunny heat. The villa side is characterized by beautiful houses and gardens, most of which block direct access to the lake.

After yesterday's heavy cloudburst, we wanted to take advantage of the cooling down and look at the Griebnitzsee today with pleasant temperatures 🌤️.

It started with the train 🚉 at the Griebnitzsee train station. The round is easy to walk with variety through the forest, along the water and also towards the end along the road, where you pass great …

Always beautiful! Unfortunately, it is not possible to walk along the shore all the time. On the built-up side, there have been discussions for years about a shore path that some property owners do not want to open up. On the built-up side, the shore is therefore only accessible in places. Worth mentioning this time: just before Griebnitzsee, a sign …

Today it was about the Griebnitzsee. The narrow, L-shaped lake lies in a glacial channel and is around three kilometers long. It borders the Berlin district of Wannsee to the north and the Potsdam district of Babelsberg to the south. The Griebnitzsee is connected to the Stölpchensee by the Griebnitz Canal.
Our tour started at the Griebnitzsee S-Bahn station and …

A really great tour along the Griebnitz Canal. I've never walked this route before, but I found something new. The route goes through Brandenburg and West Berlin, through the former restricted area. The weather was cloudy but quite mild, and at the end we went to our favorite Italian restaurant 🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕.
