General presentation
Mecklenburg Lake District
Large territory of lakes, canals, forests, villages and nautical activities around Müritz.
The discovery of the Region of Mecklenburg lakes revolves around Müritz, Waren (Müritz) and Müritz National Park. The stay thus alternates between the shores and the lakes, forests and natural spaces, which gives a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
See all
For a stay of 4 to 8 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: very seasonal and mosquitoes possible. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Remarkable location
Templin
Templin conserves an almost continuous brick enclosure, medieval doors and a quiet centre between forests and lakes of Uckermark. The city serves as a good base for alternating thermal baths, bicycles and swimming, with a more provincial atmosphere than the very lively lake resorts.
Place
Müritz
In Müritz, one understands the character of the country of the lakes by the scale of the waters, the banks and the roads that detach themselves in a quiet order. It is less spectacular than expected: it is the repetition of the views on the horizon line and the stops at the edge of the water that builds the real impression of the place.
Place
Waren (Müritz)
Waren (Müritz) is held by his d ́eau alley and his life of crossing, where the destination takes shape less in a monument than in the link between dock, streets and embankments. A short visit may be sufficient, especially when returning with attention to the gestures of passers-by and the water bodies that gradually reveal themselves.
Place
Neustrelitz
Neustrelitz functions as a sensitive entrance to Mecklenburg lakes: sober architecture, urban perspectives and respiration of squares give the orientation of the territory in a few steps. This is a good point for the traveller who prefers concrete details to panoramic discourse, moving forward to the rhythm of light.
