Access
Best access is via Gramzow and Zehnebeck from the West or Blumberg/Casekow from the East. The area is poorly connected via Public transport, bike (or car) is a good alternative.
Important note: The whole area is under agricultural use. This means that mowing machines etc. regular use the field paths. These are only partially open to motorized traffic, please pay attention to traffic signs. Although the area is easy to hike by foot, please don't leave the field paths.
The best areas to visit are outlined on the map with the blue dotted line and the 'point of interest'-symbol.
