a beautiful old water tower, built in 1895 according to the advertisement. No longer in use, but is beautifully preserved.

Unfortunately I didn't see any horses here in January, but it's still a very nice corner here in the pristine forest!

I was traveling in January. Unfortunately I didn't see any animals. I guess you can't dictate that either. Nevertheless: nice facility for the animals

Another tip for everyone arriving from the south-west of Berlin: take the ferry from Wannsee-Kladow station, then race to the southern entrance to the area (bike-friendly route possible), round trip, return the same way. But: as already mentioned, only from spring '23.

Great landscape. Always worth a trip, just not now: practically all paths are closed until December 2022 due to renovation work. Pay attention to the website and don't drive on unmarked paths: there are still lots of live ammunition and chemical warfare agents lying around.
