Tips from the Community
Along the Störkanal you pass this bridge, from which you have a great view of the canal. Right in front of the bridge, there are benches and a table for a short break.

Every few hundred meters a new, yet always the same highlight. Unfortunately, that doesn't help anyone.

Bumpy cycling and quite enjoyable, if a bit monotonous for me. Since this HL has been posted a dozen times, I'm not giving it a thumbs up.

Here, where the Mühlengraben flows into the Störkanal, the Waldlewitz River begins on the opposite side. The Gaartz Bridge, built in 2003, is only accessible to pedestrians and cyclists. Until 1989, a bascule bridge stood at this location, which had to be operated by boatmen using a hand winch. A view from the bridge over the Störkanal in both directions is a real treat! From the Gaartz Bridge, you have three options for continuing your exploration of the Waldlewitz: Cross the bridge and follow the forest paths to Göhren or Tramm (approx. 5 km). If you turn right, you will reach the tranquil Lewitz village of Jamel in approximately 4.5 km. If you follow the unpaved path along the Störkanal, you will reach the Breiter Graben after about 2 km. Here, turn right and after another 2 km you will reach the Friedrichsmoor hunting lodge, built in 1791. In summer, it's especially pleasant to linger in the castle courtyard and enjoy the house's specialties. The path is natural.

Beautifully designed trail of legends with all sorts of stories 😉 that are said to have happened. Numerous sculptures and a wonderful path under the oak trees towards the hunting lodge. The path is a bit bumpy, but still easy to cycle. During the week, the whole area is yours. Meaning, no other people around.

From here, you can admire the Friedrichsmoor and Neuhöfer carp ponds. If you're lucky, you might even spot a bird of prey or two hunting. There are seating areas for a break. It's right next to the road.
