Tips from the Community
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 🙏

History of the Prussian nobility (von Arnim) and their activities for "modern" products, such as silkworm breeding on mulberry trees, introduced by the Huguenots. Today, these trees are valuable because they are relatively well adapted to the climate.

In the Ruppiner Land region, several cycle paths run parallel to forestry roads, which are a joy to ride in the first few years. Unfortunately, most cycle paths are laid as a rather thin asphalt surface directly on the sandy soil after the topsoil has been removed. This leads to the first signs of root growth after just a few years, and after a longer period, such paths develop a washboard surface. Unfortunately, these paths are unsuitable for racing bikes or riders with correspondingly high speeds.

The tiny village consists of only two inhabited houses and one abandoned building, but is accessible via a public "road" (a poorly maintained dirt road). It's a so-called outbuilding (Vorwerk), which existed as early as the Middle Ages under the name Grieben, but later fell into disuse. There's a small parking lot near the curious, dilapidated cemetery, and from there you can quickly reach the beautiful Wittwesee lake on foot (an insider tip!). At the turnoff to the cemetery, a large information board with photos highlights fascinating details!

A completely idyllic spot in the far corner of the winding lake. There's no other access to the lake between Feldgriebener Weg and here. You walk along a long, narrow path. As beautiful as the fallen thick tree trunk looks, before you can enter the water, you have to climb over it, leaving only a tiny spot to stand or change clothes. It quickly drops deep into the water!
