Trail between the Baltic Sea and the Schwansener See Nature Reserve

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The info hut of the NABU, which looks after this nature reserve, has just been rebuilt. At the opening hours you get a lot of information and can look out from the new viewing platform for Kiebitz & Co.

As already described in another tip, you shouldn't necessarily follow the Baltic Sea Cycle Route. The nicer stretches are along the "waterfront" !! Of course, some of these paths are …

Birdwatching spot at the Schwansener See Nature Reserve

In August and September you can watch geese resting here. So it's definitely worth keeping your eyes open.

September 23, 2025,Von Damp nach Großwaabs

Some of the paths are poorly signposted and there are construction sites. It's muddy.
Otherwise, it runs right past the sea.

July 24, 2023,Kleine Abendrunde zum" Pizza essen" mit Kuba 😎😎🚴🚴🍕🍕

Today we took advantage of the good weather with Cuba and sneaked out of the house to go to Olpenitz - eat pizza.
It was again a super nice tour with Cuba.
Pizza was delicious, the rain God was with and merciful
and has left the "drops" above.

Started looking for the way. 🙈 There was a lot of walking back and forth along the water 💧 and the beach 🏝️. This tour is definitely one of the most beautiful of my tours. And finally there was the most delicious fried fish roll. 😋🥰 For that alone it was worth taking Vicki with us. Although it wasn't many …

September 18, 2023,Olpenitz - Damp

With a noticeable headwind (thanks to my e-bike ♥️) we want to go from Olpenitz to Damp today. It's a bit bumpy at times along the Baltic Sea cycle path. But very nice with a view of the Baltic Sea. If you follow the bicycle signs, you can easily get to Damp. However, the route does not always lead along …

August 2, 2023,1. Urlaubstag: Olpenitz-Damp

Started early, right after breakfast and caught the sunny half of the day. The ground was quite soft from the heavy rain, but we still made good progress on our old trekking bikes. Some of the paths were also paved. We particularly liked the part on the steep coast near Schönhagen.

The vacation is coming to an end. To say goodbye, we cycled 1x along the sea in the best sunny weather. We have often visited the steep coast near Waabs, it always blows my mind.
Shortly thereafter, the skyscrapers in Damp come into view as a contrast.
