Gespensterwald Nienhagen

Highlight • Forest

The Ghost Forest near Nienhagen is always a special eye-catcher on any bike tour. Especially in the pre- and post-season, when dusk sets in, you'll want to be alone in this section of the forest 👻🕸
This beech forest is definitely something special.

Hohe Düne Ferry

Highlight • Rest Area

If you come from Graal-Müritz by bike, it's best to use the ferry to get over to the old stream and the lake promenade. (approx. 3.20 euros for one person with a bike.)

Cycle Path Through Rostocker Heide Between Graal-Müritz and Markgrafenheide

Highlight • Cycleway

You should take the time to look to the right and left, even if the asphalt surface of the road tempts you to drive fast.

Nienhagen Ghost Forest

Highlight • Forest

The steep coast in Nienhagen - consisting of ice age deposits - is characteristic of the state-recognized seaside resort and is therefore subject to strict protective conditions. Along the steep bank there are stretches of beach with fine sand that are ideal for swimming.

However, caution is also advised: because the cliff is constantly affected by falls, landslides and rockfalls, especially after heavy rainfall, frost, storms or floods. Therefore, for your own safety, the information and warning signs should be respected and observed. Every year the bank recedes by about 25 centimeters. As a result, sand has to be transported from the sea to the coast again and again.
