Great rest house right on the lake promenade. The food (fries with currywurst) was exceptionally tasty. I didn't expect that. Highly recommended.

Wirler Point – Green Belt Memorial

Highlight • Historical Site

... not far from the Wirler tip, about one to two minutes by bike you will find in the middle of the Green band set up, a billboard. On this one of many fates on the former border is described. It is already a strange feeling to stand in the middle of the death strip with the bike ... and to read that at this point in 1963 an attempted escape over the border came to a sudden end. (see also the photos).
But despite all that a tour is highly recommended there. Story live and not in the book. 🤗

From here you have a fantastic view of the waters of the Brietzer ponds. Depending on the season, marsh harriers, swans, hoot tits and frogs can be observed well.

Rennsteig To〽️ 🌲 🌳
April 17, 2026, Wirler Spitze – Green Belt Memorial

At this point, the West German area jutted pointedly into the GDR, the next place in the West is Wirl, hence Wirler Spitze as it seems, it was one of many visitor points to look into the East. Opposite the Spitze on the Kolonnenweg stood an observation tower (BT) a small sand hill or dune named Klocksberg, here you can move freely today, in all directions! There are some nature conservation projects: biotopes, pulling pines, etc. It should also be a place of remembrance and reflection. 2 posts of the border fence have remained

On the Altmark side, there is a rest area, unfortunately only in the shade, with information about nature conservation along the Green Belt.

Snacks with hearty dishes. Of course there are also delicious ice cream sundaes and cakes, as well as coffee and cold drinks. (Source: https://luftkurort-arendsee.de)

“The vendace are still warm from smoking. This morning they were still swimming in the lake.” Here, smoked fish from our own catch is served on the table. You can feast on iron benches in the shady forest garden. The family business is located directly on the circular path around Lake Arendsee, you can't miss it. The prices are fair. Recommendation!

An Arendsee tour is recommended and easy to do, even with the whole family. However, the supply offer could be better!
