Binz now has the second longest pier on the island of Rügen after Sellin.
The structure can look back on an eventful history:
First built in 1902 with an impressive length of 560 meters, it was destroyed a few years later by a storm surge. After reconstruction in 1942, it was destroyed again by persistent weathering, waves and wind.
The current Binz pier was built in 1994 with a length of around 370 meters and has been one of the landmarks of the Baltic Sea resort ever since. It serves as a tourist destination, a promenade and also as a mooring point for the excursion boats that set off towards the chalk cliffs or the neighboring seaside resorts.

Clifftop Trail Granitz (Southeast Rügen Biosphere Reserve)

Highlight • Trail

. A wonderful natural path through the beech forests of the Granitz, there was a smell of mushrooms, the leaves of the beech trees and the Baltic Sea blew its relatively mild breezes through the forest, just beautiful

Forest path in Granitz, Southeast Rügen Biosphere Reserve

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

The path is paved because it would otherwise be washed away in the rain.

Granitz Hunting Lodge

Highlight • Castle

The Granitz hunting lodge was built between 1837 and 1846 on the 107-metre-high forested Tempelberg near Binz. From the 38 meter high central tower, which was only added in 1844, you have a fantastic panoramic view of Rügen and you can see Binz Bay.

The castle was once a residence for princely guests during the hunting season. Today it is a very popular destination for young and old. With over 250,000 visitors a year, it is the most visited castle in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.

June 20, 2024,🏖💛 Rügen - Jagdschloss Granitz

From the roof terrace of our holiday apartment we can see the 🏰 Granitz hunting lodge. It must work the other way around ↔️ too. To find out, we are making our way to the hunting lodge today.

The highlight🔝 of our visit is, in the truest sense of the word, the castle tower. The spiral staircase in the tower …

This hike takes me to the Granitz today. As a former hunting ground in the middle of a large contiguous beech forest, since 1991 a biosphere reserve in the southeast of Rügen, not far from the seaside resorts of Binz and Sellin. The Granitz hunting lodge is worth a visit, but this is not on my agenda today.
I hiked …
