An absolutely magical little lake. With a bit of luck, you might even spot eagles! It's very isolated and difficult to reach by car (which is a good thing!), but hiking here is a wonderful experience thanks to the magnificent landscape and forest backdrop! The trail is signposted, even from three directions. Please be as quiet as possible and keep everything perfectly clean!

There are a few small paths that you can ride along the bike and right on the Peene you will also find a canoe rental: http://www.kanuverleih-menzlin.de/
