Pilgrim Hike: Potsdam – Seddin (17 km) – Staying on the Way

This pilgrim hike leads us out of the city of Potsdam into a varied landscape of lakes, wetlands, forests, and open walking paths. Moving through the Lienewitz–Caputh chain of lakes and wetlands and along quiet forest trails, we practice walking with what is: one step, one stretch of path, one day at a time.

🤔 Why this pilgrimage?
It is easy to start well – and harder to keep going. Not because the way becomes impossible, but because attention drifts, motivation fades, and the next distraction is always close.
This pilgrimage is an opportunity to slow down, reconnect with nature, and reflect on life’s important questions. We’ll walk at a relaxed pace, share thoughts, and take time for moments of silence – about 30 minutes to an hour – to listen to nature and our inner voices.
🔔 What to know & bring

• Wear comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing and sturdy walking or hiking shoes.
• Bring enough food and water for the whole day.
• If you’d like to swim, bring swimwear and a towel.
