There's a sign here that says "large window," but you can't see anything because nature was quicker—if at all, a view of the lake was possible. Someone who got a bit confused by the many lakes on their hike named the highlight Lake Stechlin. It's actually Lake Röblin. You can't really confuse them.

The Stechlinsee Loop is currently closed due to a bridge closure near the former Rheinsberg power plant. Therefore, you must choose a suitable path, hiking counterclockwise, either along the water or through the forest above the lake.

Lake Stechlin is probably one of the cleanest and clearest lakes in Brandenburg. You can walk around the lake on the shore path.
