Heath Blossom Hike: Treuenbrietzen to Luckenwalde (27 km)
Sun, Aug 30, 8:15 AMThis hike starts in the picturesque town of Treuenbrietzen, from where it takes us through some swampy forest (Mosquito alert - bring repellent!). Continuing through fields and villages, a former military area with heath vegetation and sandy trails awaits us and may offer the chance for some barefoot walking. This hike's lost place is a rather unusual one, since it's a town that got erased by the soviet army to make space for military use, so there might not be a lot of it left. After entering the town of Luckenwalde we catch one of the trains that run at least every hour to Berlin. Meet us in the **first car of the train RE4**, departing from **Südkreuz station at 10:15 on platform 5,** **arriving at Jüterbog, Bahnhof at 10:54, then taking the Train RB33 at 11:11 to Treuenbrietzen, Bahnhof (same platform).** **There is an alternative connection from Potsdam. Make sure to arrive at Treuenbrietzen train station at 11:30** Unless you are subscribed to the Deutschlandticket, you need to buy a train ticket to Treuenbrietzen. Please note: * As a grown-up, you are responsible for yourself. * Come prepared for wet and windy weather. * Wear appropriate footwear, we may come across some muddy and sandy sections. * Bring enough water, food and some cash with you. * Please be fair and only RSVP if you are sure you can make it and update if your plans change. See you on Sunday!

On this varied circular hike, we’ll explore a chain of elongated lakes in the Behrensdorfer Heide. The quiet and, at times, very secluded trail follows the wooded shores of Lake Springsee and Lake Großer Glubigsee, for much of the route, offering beautiful views of the surrounding nature. Along the way, we’ll also pass through an interesting wet woodland area, a valuable ecosystem that plays an important role in climate protection and nature conservation. And if the weather is on our side, the many lakeside bathing spots invite us to enjoy a refreshing swim or simply relax by the water. As there are no guaranteed places to stop for food or drinks along the route, please bring enough food and water for the day. Since we’ll be walking through woodland and wetland areas, it’s also a good idea to bring an effective insect repellent. **What’s Village Outdoor?** Village outdoor Events are monthly meetups for the we are village community and their friends to enjoy outdoor activities in and around Berlin. Activities include forest hikes, bike tours, swimming in lakes, sightseeing, and kayaking. Each month features a free and easy walk or hike in Berlin or its surrounding areas, accessible by public transport. **General Information** **Be sun smart:** Please dont forget sun screen, a hat and maybe even a long-sleeved shirt. On a hot day, also remember to bring plenty of water. **Language:** Depending on the needs of the group, we will speak German and/or English. **Cost:** The event is free of charge. *\*\* Diese Veranstaltung ist Teil unseres Programms ‘**queere generationen**‘, unterstützt von der* ***[Berliner Lotto Stifttung](https://www.lotto-stiftung-berlin.de/)****.

Auf einer abwechslungsreichen Rundwanderung entdecken wir die langgezogene Seenkette an der Behrendorfer Heide. Der stille und teilweise sehr abgelegene Wanderweg führt größtenteils entlang der bewaldeten Ufer des Springsees und des Großen Glubigsees und eröffnet immer wieder schöne Blicke auf die Natur. Unterwegs passieren wir außerdem ein interessantes Bruchwaldgebiet, das als wertvolles Ökosystem eine wichtige Rolle für den Klima- und Naturschutz spielt. Und wenn das Wetter mitspielt, laden die zahlreichen Badestellen unterwegs zu einer erfrischenden Abkühlung oder einer entspannten Pause ein. Da unterwegs keine Einkehrmöglichkeiten garantiert sind, denkt bitte an ausreichend Proviant und Getränke. Und weil wir durch Wald- und Feuchtgebiete wandern, lohnt es sich auch ein gutes Mückenschutzmittel dabei zu haben. \*Glubigsee, Photo: Angelika Laslo, License: Seenland Oder-Spree **Was ist Village Outdoor?** Village Outdoor Events sind monatliche Treffen der we are village-Community und ihrer Freunde, um Outdoor-Aktivitäten in und um Berlin zu genießen.
