April 7, 2026, Rheinsberg–Kagar Rail Trail

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 railway cycle path is easy to ride and, thanks to its avenue character, also offers protection from the sun in summer. With a gravel bike, it's a good way to cover distance quickly.

The section between Flecken and Dorf Zechlin will be paved in 2025, creating a car-free zone 🙏

The church was built in the 13th century and has remained a ruin since its destruction in 1440.

An incredibly solid masonry of precisely hewn fieldstones characterizes this fairly well-preserved ruin. Considering that it has remained in this condition since 1440, this is also quite astonishing. The original church was built in the mid-13th century and fell victim to a major war. Lychen was conquered in the Pomeranian-Brandenburg War (1329-1333).
