The island’s quieter side

The island’s quieter side

Beyond the seaside resorts, a different island landscape begins. In Lieper Winkel, small villages, fields and reed-fringed shores set the pace. The peninsula lies between the Achterwasser lagoon and Peenestrom, inviting you to slow down naturally. Plan a cycle ride or a walk in manageable stages. Pause at Rankwitz harbour, then choose routes through places such as Liepe, Warthe or Grüssow. A map helps turn separate destinations into a relaxed outing without overloading the day. Nature watching needs little ceremony here: stop, look across the water and take in your surroundings. Respect marked protected areas and keep to permitted paths. Nature park information and guided activities can help you plan.
