Situation November 2025: no chance of crossing the bridge. Construction work is still in full swing. Maybe it's possible on weekends if you sneak through.

Highly recommended, right on the tranquil Molchowsee. It's a great place to stay if you want peace and quiet.

Important: The bridge near Rottstiel after the campsite is closed until Q4 2025. It will probably be possible to cross it again sooner. However, there is currently only "no bridge." You can return and walk around the lake via the Fontaneweg trail, right by the water.
