The Gahrns fish farm in Gardelegen is a traditional family business established in 1978. Originally specializing in trout farming, the farm has developed over the years into a versatile tourist destination. During the GDR era, it was the only private fish farm in the region. After reunification, the farm's offerings expanded, and since 1992, the farm has been a recognized master fish farm and training center. In addition to the fish farm, the farm now houses a restaurant serving regional specialties and a fishing park where visitors can catch trout from spacious ponds. The large terrace directly on the water is particularly attractive and is ideal for a break during a bike ride. Thus, the farm combines culinary delights with natural relaxation and invites you to linger.

A beautiful rest area, prepared with a lot of effort. When the weather is nice it is well attended and filled with cars. However, the water treading area is only suitable for washing feet rather than treading water
