Pilgrim Hike: Müncheberg to Buckow (13.5 km, optional 22 km)

This pilgrimage leads us into the Märkische Schweiz – a small nature park of wooded hills, streams, and lakes that feels far removed from the flat land around Berlin. We'll follow the Stobber valley in silence for a stretch, letting the water and the trees do the talking, and arrive in the old spa town of Buckow. For those who want more, the day can extend into a longer loop.
