A beautiful little sandy cove surrounded by reeds and hedges, easily accessible via a path. Leave your bikes, etc., in front of the narrow entrance door. A quiet, idyllic spot to linger!

A very beautiful and quiet spot. Here you can relax, unwind and enjoy the sunset. In the summer it is definitely a bit busier.

The landscape impressions north of the camping park are almost more beautiful than in the nature reserve. However, the path is sometimes quite overgrown and blocked by fallen trees

Fantastic view of the Achterwasser to Wolgast. The path is now just a single trail, but is still rideable.
