Beautiful circular hike in the Hangelsberger Heide, Brandenburg.
A great tour for anyone looking for peace and quiet in the solitude of nature. It leads through the forests of the Hangelsberger Heide to the Löcknitz Valley nature reserve. The Löcknitz originated as an ice-age meltwater channel and is now home to numerous endangered plant and animal species. There are only a few hiking trails in the nature reserve itself, but with a bit of luck you can spot kingfishers, various species of fish and even ospreys.
