Old Rügen Causeway (Alter Rügendamm)

Highlight • Bridge

It is quite an event when you drive across the bridge. The bridge is part of the Rügendamm, which also runs over the island of Dänholm. If the weather is good, you have a wonderful view of Stralsund. Unfortunately, the new bridge, as important as it is, has somewhat stolen the show from the old one.

Puddemin Marina

Highlight • Rest Area

Puddemin is a picturesque harbor village in the south of the island of Rügen. The village captivates not only with its nostalgic thatched-roof houses, but also with its fantastic waterfront location. A cozy restaurant in the idyllic natural harbor invites you to enjoy a meal.

Puddemin is still a real insider tip, away from Rügen's tourist hotspots like Göhren and Binz.

Shaded Forest Path on Rügen

Highlight • Trail

You can find berries along the way, grab some and enjoy nature. It looks like an old railway line and you can find the symbol of the Way of St. James.

September 6, 2021,Ostseeküstenradweg: Von Putbus nach Stralsund
The way to Stralsund is characterized by a wide variety of floor coverings. Asphalt, concrete, meadow, gravel, slabs, sand, ... and sometimes the signs were a bit confusing.
The extra curl in my route doesn't come from wrong signage. During the Rügen stages, I often looked at the analog bike map and read about old chalk quarries that a bike …

From Sralsund to Putbus,
super nice bike paths. Sometimes a few meters of slightly impassable ground, which our borrowed bikes mastered very well (only 7 gears). I can only recommend an ice cream in Garz and a piece of homemade cake in Lauterbach at the harbor (Jenny's Hafencafe).

Today was our last bike tour of the adventure with 🛳️ & 🚴 from Bln - Tegel to Stralsund within a week. Unfortunately, the weather gods deserted us a little. As we were getting the bikes ready to go, it started to rain 🌧️. So we got back on the ship and got the bikes ready to go a little …

Everything was as it used to be: the woof woof of the locomotive, its horns, friendly conductors who helped load the bikes and punctual travel times. The trip on the historic "Rasender Roland" spa train was like a journey back in time to childhood. Tickets are available at the station and online. On this hot day, it was also a …

Today was the final tour! The bikes were ready, and off we went. Rügen offered every possible surface: single trails, gravel or hard-sand paths, cobblestones, but there were also perfectly paved sections. We crossed the Rügen Dam to Stralsund. The ship had moored in a cordoned-off area, and we travelers were at a loss. But then the captain finally had …

Alternative tour via Rügen to Lauterbach and tomorrow back to the Stahlbrode ferry and on to Greifswald. Partly paved bike paths or beautiful natural railway lines. Just beautiful

Definitely: The most beautiful tour I have mastered on Rügen. Sometimes I had to push the bike about 200 meters on the sandy beach, but watching the kite surfers doing their sport was worth it. Very beautiful. I can finally say it about Rügen, because I didn't find Cape Arkona and Königstuhl stunning.
