Fairy Tale Forest (Märchenwald) on Rügen

Highlight • Forest

The tree population immediately above the steep coast was characterized by the influence of the sea breeze. The individual trees were shaped during their growth phase in such a way that their overall appearance appears spooky or magical.

Fairy Tale Forest Rügen

Highlight • Forest

Rügen's fairytale forest is on the northernmost shore of the cliffs, between the rainbow camp near Nonnevitz and the Müllerrinne - a small stream that flows north of the settlement of Schwarbe through the cliffs into the Baltic Sea.

June 7, 2024,Rügen - Kap Arkona

Kap Arkona is a dream in every season. So far I have always explored it on foot via Putgarten and today I am cycling along the west coast for the first time. 😎🌞😃

Today we were brave because of the wind🌬.
We took the route we already hiked from Puttgarden to Cape Arkona by bike🚲🚲 from our accommodation. A wind from the southwest or from the side was quite bearable. Returning from the cape was less bearable... the wind🌬🌬🌬 from the front. But what the heck... We had to persevere until we got …

A very nice tour with great views on the steep coast. A rest in the fishing village of Vitt is a must.

This tour leads directly along the coast, so that you can see the Baltic Sea almost continuously. Just gorgeous …

Today we followed Tour 7 by Berndt Borrmann. We didn't have to heave the bikes onto the car, we could start right near the holiday apartment. Along the steep coast we went via the romantic fishing village of Vitt to Cape Arkona. Contrary to our expectations, it was not overcrowded despite Father's Day. After a detour to the market in …

September 11, 2024,Entdeckertour Rügen 2. Tag

After spending the last night in the car at a free PP, today I'm treating myself to a ****CP for €28.50😉. My tour today didn't start until the afternoon because it was just raining.
