Wolde brings together two distinct historical features: the manor house and the remains of a medieval castle on Castle Hill. For trip planning, this creates a contrast between a building with former and present-day functions and visible traces of a castle complex.

Manor House and Castle Hill

The manor house in Wolde was originally built as an inspector’s house and is now used as a community centre. A landscaped park with a chestnut avenue leads directly to the manor house. The building’s former and present-day functions can thus be clearly contrasted, while the park and avenue also connect it to the surrounding landscape.

Wolde Castle Hill consists of the remains of a 14th-century medieval castle. The moat and rampart are still clearly visible; their visibility may change over time. These two landscape features draw attention to the layout of the former complex and provide a different historical point of reference from the manor house.

Mecklenburg Lake District: Nature and Outdoor Activities

Müritz National Park is part of the Mecklenburg Lake District and is characterised by forests, bogs, lakes and expansive meadows. For travellers wishing to include the region’s natural environment in their plans, options range from a multi-stage route to guided tours and exploring from the water.

The Müritz National Park Hiking Trail explores the park’s landscape types and special features over nine stages. It passes lakes, winds through ancient forests, goes by inland dunes and leads to the source of the Havel. These landmarks and landscapes show the route’s range, while its division into nine stages gives the hiking trail a clear structure.

Certified nature and landscape guides offer informative tours through MĂĽritz National Park. These include tours in the Serrahn UNESCO World Heritage beech forest, as well as tours from the water. Unlike the multi-stage trail, these experiences focus on tours led by certified nature and landscape guides. The examples range from the beech forest to a perspective from the water.

Wildlife Watching and Waterways

The Damerower Werder bison reserve is located on a peninsula in Lake Kölpin and in Nossentiner/Schwinzer Heath Nature Park. Visitors can observe the animals there. The reserve also has a forest adventure trail with climbing opportunities, an anthill display, an exhibition with tactile and visual panels, and a dendrophone. Wildlife watching and the trail’s various features offer different highlights within this nature experience.

Water-tour enthusiasts can also discover the Mecklenburg Lake District from a different perspective: from Neustrelitz town harbour, they can explore MĂĽritz National Park and the Strelitz Small Lakes via the Upper Havel Waterway. The main difference from the hiking trail is the mode of travel: here, the focus is on exploring from the water, while the trail is a nine-stage route on foot.

The Rechlin Aviation Technology Museum is located in Rechlin Nord. This adds an aviation-focused museum to the region’s selection of nature and waterside landscapes.
