Müritz National Park
Müritz National Park is exceptional for its thousands of migrating cranes, deep forests, and trails that wind along more than 100 lakes — including Lake Müritz, Germany’s largest. The park offers a rare immersion into the lake-dotted wilderness of Mecklenburg.
Visit Schwerin Castle
Surrounded by lakes, Schwerin is like a fairytale city. Its majestic castle, located on an island in the lake, houses a collection of court art and artifacts. The baroque-style gardens are immaculately maintained, and the towering red-brick cathedral offers breathtaking panoramic views from its spire.
Bärenwald Müritz - The Bear Forest
This forest sanctuary is dedicated to brown bears and allows visitors to observe them from special viewing platforms along the trail. Guided tours are available, feeding times can be attended, and numerous play areas are set up for children.

The inspiring Mecklenburg Lakes offer superb waterways cruising
Boating holidays on the lakes of Mecklenburg and Lake Müritz are full of unique experiences. This is a place where you can really reconnect with nature. At the helm of your no-license boat, you’ll cruise through immense lakelands with finely-shaped banks, watching the changing colours of the sky. This inland region of Germany is beautifully unspoilt, with forests as far as the eye can see where you can draw a sense of calm from the vast open spaces. Rent a boat from Riverly to tap into this rare experience. You’ll also come across sailing boats and canoes on your boating holidays. You can watch sea eagles take off, and ospreys and cranes leaving for their long migrations. One of the most beautiful regions of Germany, between Berlin and Rostock, this is a real inland sea, with majestic lakes shimmering between beautiful wooded hills. There are fertile meadows all around, dotted with romantic villages and historic castles where time seems to have stood still. It’s a beautiful journey, which is made even better when you take a cruise on a self-drive boat: you can travel at your own pace to enjoy every moment of serenity.
