Activities in the wider Rostock destination
In the wider Rostock destination, Wildpark-MV offers different ways to visit: visitors can explore the park on their own or join guided walks. These include wolf, owl and evening walks. You can therefore explore independently or choose a themed guided walk.
Schwaan Adventure and Climbing Forest has seven courses for children, beginners and advanced climbers. A 116.5-metre-long flying fox zip line runs directly over the lake. As facilities may change following renovations, check the latest information before your visit. The Sternberger Seenland Nature Park offers a different experience: its deeply incised breakthrough valleys along the Warnow, numerous lakes, picturesque hills and extensive forests are especially inviting for hiking and cycling. The wider Rostock destination therefore offers both a range of courses and a nature park with hiking and cycling opportunities, catering to different active pursuits.
The wider Rostock destination also has a distinct cultural focus. The Wolhynian Resettlers Museum in Linstow offers guided tours for groups and individuals. Using ethnographic objects, photographs and documents, the tours explore the history of the Volhynian Germans from the mid-19th century to their resettlement in Mecklenburg after the Second World War.
The Molli narrow-gauge railway offers another historical perspective. It runs between Kühlungsborn and Bad Doberan and is the oldest narrow-gauge railway on the Baltic coast. Its track gauge is 900 millimetres, and it has shaped the coastal townscape since 1886. The wider Rostock destination thus brings together a range of themes: Lake Dolgen and its natural surroundings, active ways to explore, and regional history.
