This is not a nice swimming spot, there are a few scruffy fishing boats lying on the muddy shore made up of mud and roots.

September 23, 2024, Wolletzsee

Nestled in the hilly forest landscape on the edge of the UNESCO Schorfheide-Chorin Biosphere Reserve, the seven-kilometer-long Wolletzsee lies just outside Angermünde. The clear lake, up to 18 meters deep, is fed by the Welse and is a popular destination for bathers, divers and anglers. A 16.5-kilometer-long hiking trail leads around the lake and offers a variety of impressions. Steep shores are lined with old beech forests, while meadows and fields stretch out in other places. The stilt houses on the south and east banks are particularly interesting—allotments that are not on the water, but on it. The path on the north bank is pleasant to walk and offers quiet sections for relaxation. A paradise for amateur photographers with picturesque motifs opens up along the Welse. From various points you have beautiful views of the lake and the surrounding area. A detour to the Wolletzsee is worthwhile at any time of year. The combination of water, forest and hilly landscape creates a special atmosphere that invites you to linger. If you want, you can refresh yourself in the clear water and enjoy nature to the fullest.
