Black Alder Wetland Station – Moor Discovery Trail Stechlin-Ruppiner Land

Highlight • Natural

The alder forest seems to stand on stilts. Black alder are one of the few native tree species that can hold their own under such extreme conditions.

The drainage created wet meadows and is mowed in late summer. This species-rich biotope can be preserved with this gentle use. In addition to numerous spiders, dragonflies and beetles, this wet meadow also offers ideal conditions for butterflies.

Currently our "home lake" ☺️ A truly great walk, you practically only walk along the water 🏞️ And in the shade of the trees 🌳🌲 Constantly stunning views of the lake and swimming spots and opportunities. We didn't meet anyone except a few naked swimmers 😊 Along the way, we found an almost perfect porcini mushroom, but unfortunately only one, …

We actually wanted to park in the car park at the nuclear power plant and then hike the large peninsula in Lake Stechlin. xenvaroqil.info/de-de/tour/1589274686

Gniewi is still small, and is growing like a rocket, but of course we don't want it to become overloaded or damaged by development.

That's why!!! the routes still have to be relatively short!

Our start and finish point is the tranquil village of Menz in the NSG Stechlin. After initial research, the next bakery is 5 km away and the next supermarket is 18 km away …

Today I was in Menz again on business and had the hiking boots with me in advance. So, after I was done with the prosthesis measure, I changed my shoes and took a quick stroll around the Roofensee. What can I say, a really great little round that always goes along the water and could also be extended as desired. …

The hike around Lake Roofensee is fantastic. Accompanied by the "From Moor to Moor" nature trail and the Forest and Water Trail, you'll pass several spots that require a longer stay to absorb all the interesting information at these stations.
While the path along the eastern shore is already beautiful, the western shore feels like …

After a great carnival celebration, today we took advantage of the beautiful weather with almost spring-like temperatures for a short hike. It was lovely.
