Great area, and especially great in winter.

Beautiful views of the Baltic Sea, and usually few people around. And always pay attention to the path; in some places, the cliff edge is very close.

On the western side of the old river, there are many shopping opportunities and culinary options, as well as many restored little houses, one next to the other. On the eastern side, there are many fish stalls selling fresh fish.

A good cycle path along the coast, partly paved with sand or asphalt. Heavily used by holidaymakers.

Here the view is admirably beautiful, the holy dam enchants us completely," wrote the English travel writer Thomas Nugent in 1766, long before the seaside resort was founded. Heiligendamm still enchants today. Dark beech forests, white beaches and the sound of waves invite you to dream and relax. The oldest seaside resort in Germany - once the grand ducal summer residence and a popular destination for high society - is now shining in new splendor. The renovated ensemble stands out magnificently from the coastal forest, while some of the pearl necklace's jewels are still waiting to be redeemed. You can enjoy an unforgettable view of the "White City by the Sea" from the pier. Heiligendamm - let yourself be enchanted! 🚶🍷🛳️

A relic from the former GDR. I personally like such "souvenirs" because they give you a better idea of the past.
