Popular circular hiking trail in the Nuthe-Nieplitz Nature Park, Brandenburg.
Lake Riebener See, which is a nature reserve and was formed during the last ice age as part of the Nuthe-Nieplitz lowland chain of lakes, is a familiar sight for birdwatchers in particular. Thousands of geese spend the winter here every year and rare species such as the marsh harrier also feel at home in the water surrounded by a dense belt of reeds. There are good views of Lake Rieben and its feathered inhabitants from the observation platform on the eastern shore, about halfway along the circular route.
Highlights of the hike:
- Varied hiking trails
- Lake Rieben
- Bird observation platform on the eastern shore
