Peene & Bodden - Usedom - Szczecin Lagoon

The Peene, Bodden and Achterwasser are perfect for recreational captains: no locks, hardly any bridges, little current, but fields of water lilies, beavers and gray geese, old Hanseatic towns and fashionable seaside resorts. The area is a mixture of calm rivers, idyllic inland lakes and protected coastal waters. The spectrum ranges from the gently rolling Mecklenburg Switzerland to the marshy Vorpommern river landscape to the Baltic Sea island of Usedom with its beaches, forests and meadows. You can even explore the Szczecin Lagoon with our boats!

The largest lake in the area is Lake Kummerow, and the river is navigable from our new charter station in Malchin at Köster's Eck. In Kummerow it is only a few meters from the pier to the Kummerow Castle with its impressive photographic collection. The village of Neukalen can be reached via the so-called Teterower Peene, here it is worth the detour for a nice dinner. At Aalburde and Verchen you will reach the "Amazon of the North", which impresses with its breathtaking flora and fauna. The Hanseatic town of Demmin is located in the Three Rivers region, where the Peene, Trebel and Tollense rivers meet. Besides the medieval museum village Hanseviertel with its own pier Demmin offers good shopping facilities.

Cultural events at Lake Kummerow

Germany's eighth largest lake is an insider's tip: between the rolling hills of Mecklenburg Switzerland, boaters will find a surprising variety: moorland, garden restaurants right on the water, castles, forests and pastures with giant trees and rare plants, galleries and cultural events. Idyllic canals lead to the towns of Malchin and Neukalen. On the Amazon of the North, the Peene, you can reach Anklam without a license.


Nature experience tour

The Peene, the Amazon of the North: More nature experience does not go! Kingfishers, cranes, ospreys, beavers, otters and pikes can be observed here. Rare orchids, marsh irises and water lilies can be found on the banks and in the peat ponds that branch off here again and again. Waterway resting places at estates and small towns offer overnight accommodation in complete silence.

 


Peenestrom, Achterwasser and Szczecin Lagoon

There is so incredibly much to see here, for example: Fishing village Feest, Peenemünde with the historical-technical museum, Baltic resort Zinnowitz (jetty at the Achterwasser), Hanseatic city Wolgast, in hospitable Poland: Swinemünde and Wolin and the seaside resort Ueckermünde, before it goes back into the Peene near Anklam.
