The Rostocker Heide is the largest forest area around a city in all of Germany. It is always an experience to move through nature here. Here you can still see deer in the wild and of course other wild animals too, like roe deer, hares, wild boars, badgers, foxes... Don't lose your orientation within the Rostocker Heide, otherwise you'll have some problems... and mobile reception is not possible everywhere.

The Rostocker Heide is always an experience, whether as a hiker or cyclist. However, you can quickly get lost there and mobile reception is not available everywhere. For this reason, you should constantly try to keep your bearings.
