Lake Schermützel

Highlight • Lake

The lake and its water are definitely worth a trip. The panoramic path offers beautiful views and there are also many huts and rest areas. You should also take a trip across the lake with the local shipping company.

So the sun is shining.. At our starting point there is a large parking lot directly on the hiking trail. The tour has a few meters of altitude, a bit unusual for us lowlanders, but the panoramic view in between compensates for the little exertion. A really, really nice, varied round, along lakes and small streams. There are opportunities for …

Today we are once again running a "classic" hike - the nature park route through Märkische Schweiz. You can walk this route "always" and probably at any time of the year, even if we prefer the autumn and winter months for hiking.

Today we went through the beautiful Märkische Schweiz along the Märkische Schweiz nature park route. The start was the car park in the north of the Schermützelsee. A beautiful, varied route with many highlights.

The Märkische Schweiz (Markish Switzerland) in Brandenburg offers a unique natural setting. On the nature park route around Buckow, hikers experience a landscape formed by the Ice Age, with wild gorges, valleys, and lakes.

It wasn't the first time (and certainly not the last) that I hiked this "classic" trail today. The forest was bone dry due to the prolonged …

We started our circular hike on the Märkische Schweiz Nature Park Route at the Schweizer Haus in Buckow, where there is good parking. The approximately 20-kilometer tour leads through a diverse landscape with forests, lakes, and quiet valleys.

We began by hiking through tranquil beech forests, then continued into the idyllic Stobbertal Valley. There, we followed a narrow path along …

Elevation in Brandenburg? Yes, you can do that (at least a little) in Märkische Schweiz. And even though the climbs are all so short that I never get to the point where I ask myself whether a drastic reduction in speed would be appropriate, I still have a lot of fun.

The sun finally showed up today. From the hiking car park just before Buckow, we hiked the panorama trail along the Schermutzelsee.
Due to the climbs, this requires a certain level of fitness.
The tour also goes along the Stobber and the Pritzhagener Mühle. Shortly before Waldsieversdorf there are small and very beautiful forest lakes.

The weather was anything but ideal - in complete contrast to the company. The route is awesome though! Hardly any hard surfaces, wonderful landscapes, wonderful mixed and deciduous forests. The nice thing: off the route there are plenty of opportunities for additional elevation gain, so that active and less fit people get their money's worth together. Insect protection urgent. recommended! …
