Tips from the Community
The isolated and quiet location of the tiny place speaks for itself. In addition, there is an extraordinarily attractive landscape. Very varied, even idyllic. Nature lovers get their money's worth, especially on a short hike to Tietzensee! The paths can be described as good, but in places they are quite sandy, which makes cycling very difficult. - It should be mentioned that there is poor access for cars from Dollgow to Schulzenhof. Slowly, however, it is no problem. Here you look out over a long meadow, which is sometimes populated with horses. Just before Schulzenhof, a small stream flows and you can already see the Strittmatter house at the front of the hill. An incredibly beautiful sight.

Dolgow is a bit of a thing for racing cyclists. Towards Rheinsberg or Köpernitz the route is too bad for thin tires. Towards Lindow you ride along beautiful little country roads. In the village there are inns that are still open (occasionally) and two very good places to swim.

Unfortunately you are not allowed to enter the area. And whether the mill still rattles?

In summer a good opportunity to swim in Lake Dollgower. Sühring's inn is recommended for refreshment.
