Parson's Widow's House, Groß Zicker

Highlight • Historical Site

Especially in summer the garden is beautiful. For children, it is certainly exciting to see how one used to live like this. But even in winter, when peace is on the island, worth a walk here.

May 8, 2026,Rügen: Groß Zicker und Zickersche Berge

Under a blue sky and sunshine, I explored Mönchgut today. First, I went to Groß Zicker. Here you can still find many thatched houses. Walking through the village, you get the impression that time has stood still. Silence enveloped me on this hike, only interrupted by the singing of birds. I was able to explore the Zickersche Berge via very …

And to finish off, delicious fish sandwiches.

Before checking in to the apartment building, there was still enough time for a tour through the Zicker Mountains.
In Groß Zicker, I took a culinary break and enjoyed a delicious fish sandwich and an island beer.
Well fortified, I began the descent to the Nonnenloch and was completely fascinated by this small piece of land.
The surf crashed against …

June 27, 2025,Rügen Tag 5: Stürmische Rundwanderung ab Gager an der Küste nach Groß Zicker👍🌪️

Today's tour was all about the "storm." We set off from the parking lot right at the entrance to Gager, heading toward the harbor and from there toward Nonnenloch. There are several different route options, but I think our choice of the coastal path is the more exciting. At the "Nonnenloch," you can walk to the water and up a …

It's interesting what is called "mountain" here ... it doesn't matter: the Zickersche mountains on Rügen's Mönchgut peninsula form a strangely beautiful hilly landscape with gentle pastures, great flora and a great view of the sea. An ideal area for relaxed hiking. The hills did not arise from sand dunes, but from an ice-age moraine landscape.
