Wonderful circular route on the Darß, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.
The starting point for the short hike is the Natureum at the Darßer lighthouse. Here is lots to learn about the marine world and the habitats of the national park and its inhabitants. The lighthouse offers a breathtaking view over the national park and anyone who visits the Natureum can also stop off at the café there.
The hike leads through alder forests, over boardwalks through the dunes and to several viewpoints. With a bit of luck red deer, wild boar and of course the diverse birdlife can be observed from here.
