December 23, 2024,Weihnachtspostfiliale Himmelpfort & Lychener Gewässer

It's almost a tradition to go to Himmelpfort around Christmas time.
But first things first...
The plan was actually to cycle the tour to Himmelpfort with @Thomas @AlexHa and @Strampel MichA(-b) , but the weather forecast had thrown a spanner in the works - rain and snow were predicted. And so that the tour wouldn't be as challenging as in …

In Himmelpfort there is Santa's mailbox. Many children send their wish lists there every year. And for decades every letter has been answered by Santa Claus and his helpers.

July 5, 2025,Woblitzrunde - Lychen - Himmelpfort

A little tip for the official Woblitz Loop.
From Lychen, the old railway bridge is accessible, and you can walk along the old railway line. There are some beautiful trails along the way, so you don't have to walk along the main road from Lychen to Fürstenberg. Later, you'll return to the official route. The Seenfischerei fish restaurant in Himmelpfort …

May 11, 2025,Seenrunde von Lychen und Himmelpfort

A fantastic loop in perfect hiking weather through the beautiful landscape from Lychen around the lakes to Himmelpfort and back. The hike is always an experience. Our small hiking group highly recommends this trail. The winged insect, by the way, is a birch sawfly of considerable size. This was the first time we'd ever seen such a specimen. We wish …

I also had an order from my grandchildren with me for this round. They noticed that I wanted to go to Himmelpfort to hike and meet Santa Claus.

Grandpa Reini, can you ask him why our letters haven't been answered yet and whether our gift wishes are okay?

October 22, 2022,Um den großen Lychensee und an der Woblitz entlang

On the way there it was still pouring, but I was optimistic and that was right. It stayed dry from the start of the hike and the sun gradually fought its way through the clouds.

Lychen is always worth a trip anyway and it was wonderful today too. Forest and lakes and dancing leaves.
And by the way, I also …
