Running and cycling route: Lake Templin

Discover the enchanting Lake Templin, the jewel in the chain of majestic lakes along the picturesque middle Havel. This unique water landscape stretches from the idyllic Lake Nieder-Neuendorfer in Berlin to the impressive Lake Großer Zernsee near Werder an der Havel – a true paradise for nature lovers. Our short tour takes you across the lake to Potsdam and back again.

Start your tour heading south to the railway bridge over Lake Templin. You can cross it via the Templin railway embankment footpath. Continue your tour northwards along the lake, past Hermannswerder Island and the Speicherstadt Potsdam. As you cross the Lange Brücke bridge, you will have a view of the New City Palace. The Breite and Zeppelinstraße roads towards Geltow will then take you back to the hotel.
