Forest area in the Döberitzer Heide

Highlight • Forest

In this area it is more like forest than extensive heathland. But the forest is no less beautiful: very unspoiled

April 13, 2023,Döberitzer Heide - die große Runde

A former military training area that has become a nature reserve.
The fact that the core zone is closed is absolutely correct - who would want to meet bison face to face...
But you also have to say that almost all the paths outside are also closed, so that really only the big lap remains. And it is 22 km …

Today, I'm taking advantage of a visit to Fahrland near Potsdam to walk around the Döbritzer Heide wilderness area. If you're interested, follow the link: de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%C3%B6beritzer_Heide
From Fahrland, I took the circular trail and then, on quite beautiful paths, always along the fence, around the wilderness area. I was able to observe bison twice. Unfortunately, only in the distance, binoculars …

I write like this "almost always along the fence"
you can't miss the way at all 🤪
It's not one of my top tours, but we did our lap and just enjoyed nature 🌾🐃🍂😉

The Döberitzer Heide, just outside western Berlin – a former military training area – is a great place for hiking and relaxing. You can enjoy the varied landscape and diverse nature and admire the heather blooming in mid-August...as was the case today.

April 10, 2022,🥾Döberitzer Heide - Rundweg um den Wildtierkern

This time I was inspired by a hiker. And I'm positively surprised how beautiful the heath is. The paths are always sandy paths and there was very little going on. But I much prefer it anyway when the hiking trails are empty.
The circular route is once around the core area, there are no shortcuts. So we are totally exhausted …

A scenic tour.
Beautifully mixed terrain, up and down, firm and sand. My highlight, the observation tower. It was pretty calm but I had enough time to take a photo 😂

July 5, 2025,Rundweg Döberitzer Heide

Today I ventured out on the circular route, which at 22 km is a bit longer than the routes I usually run. And since there are no shortcuts, you have to persevere, which wasn't a problem.

The Döberitzer Heide offers only a modest amount of variety; most of the walking is on sand or gravel paths, and on at least …
