July 9, 2025,🇩🇪 Grienericksee und Rheinsberger See 9.7.2025 w904

Today we circumnavigated two lakes. The challenge wasn't the distance; the weather was. Rain jacket on, rain jacket off, camera stowed in the backpack, camera unpacked again. We didn't get bored. It was a leisurely walk along beautiful forest paths. The route is beautiful, and I highly recommend it. Today's highlight was two cranes.

July 9, 2025,🇩🇪 Tag 26: BRD - Rheinsberg: Umrundung Grienericksee und Rheinsberger See

Today's program included walking around Lake Grienerick and Lake Rheinsberg. Both lakes are located in the Stechlin-Ruppiner Land Nature Park. This nature reserve covers an area of 8,760 hectares. The two lakes are connected by the Rheinsberg Rhine. From our accommodation, we first headed towards Rheinsberg Castle and visited the castle grounds. We then walked along the shore of Lake …

April 7, 2025,Rheinsberg - Schlabornsee / Großer Rheinsberger See / Grieneriksee

Start/Finish - Large Parking Lot
Unfortunately, the path towards Schlabornsee runs along the road; it's a cycle path, but it's paved. The path along the lake towards Schlaborn is blocked by a traffic sign that explicitly states "No Entry - Private Property." It's impossible to plan the route from the path. Very strange, perhaps it's cult territory. (Not insects!!)

December 1, 2024,Um den Rheinsberger- und den Grienericksee - Runde von Rheinsberg

Hikes in the Mark Brandenburg, our first tour this week. It's somehow magical to walk through the almost deserted forests at this time of year. And fittingly, today on the first Sunday of Advent, there's pure sunshine.

Where to go on a free day in Berlin? 🤔
😁 Out in the country, of course. I love the big city, but Brandenburg also has a lot of beautiful and interesting things to offer. The decision where to go was once again not easy for me ...
Since I was supposed to go to the Maritim Hotel Hafen Rheinsberg …

July 18, 2023,2023-07 Kalender Stadtgeschichte Rheinsberg e.V. - Tour Juli

Today I grabbed my husband and girlfriend and we did the "July Calendar Tour" together. Around the Grienerick and Rheinsberger lakes. It started as usual at the post mile, into the castle park, where we briefly greeted "Castle cat Sheldon" and then always along the shore to the Boberower forest. From then on it's time to "wag the mosquitoes". My …

From the center of Rheinsberg, the famous residence of the Prussian Crown Prince Frederick, who moved into the palace in 1736, is quickly reached. The buildings and palace grounds shone magnificently in the golden autumn sunshine, reflected picturesquely in the adjacent Grienericksee lake. Along the western shore of the lake, we followed the signposted hiking trail toward Warenthin, a long-established …
