Attractions and Places To See around Wittstock/Dosse - Top 20

You can ride quite well here now. However, the cycle path towards Menz from Rheinsberg is not easily passable. In summer, the trees offer protection from the sun. Overall, a good route for me to cover distance on a gravel bike.

The road from Vipperow to Bollewick is absolutely unsuitable for cycling! Cars whizz past you at 100 km. And at the crossing of the Bundestrasse it is DEATHLY DANGEROUS! Absolutely irresponsible that Mecklenburger Radtour sends you there.

Here you can eat well, ride a pedal boat or pedal bike, a trip is worthwhile

After the road surface has been repaired, you no longer have to rely on your mountain bike ;-) Great cycle path from Flecken Zechlin via the village of Zechlin (don't miss the turnoff to the right into the forest when you reach Kagar) via Linow to Rheinsberg.

The railway line from Löwenberg via Rheinsberg to Flecken Zechlin went into operation in 1899. After the Second World War, the route from Flecken Zechlin to Rheinsberg was dismantled as reparations to the Soviet Union and later converted into a cycle path.

Surrounded by wide fields, meadows and forests, the lake offers a picturesque backdrop and a peaceful atmosphere that invites you to linger. The town of Mirow, which stretches along the southeastern shore of the lake, is a charming town with a well-kept beach. Here you can swim wonderfully in the lake in summer and enjoy the sun. Near the beach there is a kiosk and a restaurant, perfect for taking a break and refueling. On the opposite bank, which is easy to reach by bike, there is a campsite that also offers canoe rentals. A canoe tour on Lake Mirow is a wonderful way to enjoy the tranquil beauty of the lake from the water. A special highlight are the local fisheries on the lake. There you can try freshly smoked fish, which is prepared directly on the lake. There is nothing better than a delicious fish sandwich while looking out over the lake. The cycle paths around Lake Mirow are well developed and offer beautiful views of the lake and the surrounding landscape. The area here is ideal for cycling, with good surfaces and occasionally excellent cycle paths.

Highly recommended! Here, the experience of nature and traces of the past combine in an idyllic way. Mirow Palace and Park are part of an entire ensemble on the palace island. There are two other architectural highlights: the Renaissance gatehouse and the Johanniter Church, which also houses the family crypt of the Strelitz ducal house. The palace has a fascinating history. At its core, it still consists of parts of a previous building from 1708, which was partially destroyed in a fire in 1742. The Baroque ballroom, which still exists today, dates from 1710. The current building was erected between 1749 and 1752 on behalf of Adolf Friedrich III according to plans by Christoph Julius Löwe. It is a small, two-story structure with an H-shaped floor plan, flanked by short, risalit-like wings. The facades of the eleven-aisled palace are rather plainly designed, with simple gables on the risalits. The interior of the palace was inspired by 18th-century French country palaces. The palace is said to have once been furnished with valuable furnishings by artists who also worked at Sanssouci, but today, little of this remains. After the ducal family left, the palace was repeatedly left unused for long periods and was mainly used for burials in the nearby princely crypt. A bike tour to the castle island of Mirow is a great way to actively explore the beautiful surroundings. The Mecklenburg Lake District offers numerous bike paths that lead comfortably to the island. Along the way, you can discover the picturesque nature, the lakes, and the charming villages along the way.

On the route: Via Verde Mirow-Lärz, a bike path that the region can be proud of. Fantastic! Elsewhere, you cycle alongside disused railway lines on bumpy forest paths to the tour's destination. I wish there were more bike paths like this elsewhere! There are enough unused, disused connections, bridges, and tunnels. Great section of the route!
