Family-friendly hike from Werder, Mecklenburg-West Pomerania.
This short tour starts in Werder in the Jasmund National Park and leads through the beech forest, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, to the Wissower Klinken. Until 2005, these were spectacular chalk formations that were very popular, but in 2005 they fell into the sea during a storm. However, the view is always worth it.
This great view accompanies you a long way along the Sassnitz high bank path to Wedding, the exit of the national park. However, this is not used and it goes through the forest back to Werder.
Danger! Due to the risk of falling, you should only step forward to the marked points on the cliffs.
Highlights:
- UNESCO World Heritage Buchenwald
- Great prospects
- Hochuferweg
