Forest submerged in the Briese

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

Good hiking trail and a bit above a path that is better for bicycles. A scenic experience.

Alder carr forest in the Briese Valley

Highlight • Forest

A natural spectacle beyond compare: The Briesetal was mined by glacier movements during the Ice Age and leads its river - the Briese - very leisurely. In principle, the water stands and it resembles a fairy-tale marshland, which houses many animals. We saw several squirrels, saw woodpeckers knocking and swans and ducks swimming.

There are also several information boards and a small nature trail for young and old.

Hubertus Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Formerly a good point for a short rest, but now: shocking! No more tables and benches and the shelter dismantled.

Damned Briese

Highlight • Forest

The Briese is a small, non-navigable tributary of the Havel. It meanders here through a glacial channel with alder forest and is largely natural. Great! The atmosphere is incomparable and you can hardly imagine that the capital is just around the corner.

Alder carr forest in the Briese Valley

Highlight • Forest

The Erlenbruchwald is a totally fascinating landscape. It looks idyllic, somewhat fairytale-like and bizarre at the same time.

"Alder swamp forests often grow on better nutrient-supplied fen soils with a focus on planar to submontane regions. The dominant character species black alder (Alnus glutinosa) gives it its name. The trunk foot provided with stilt roots is typical for the trees; Thanks to its adventitious roots, the black alder can cope with heavy waterlogging and fluctuating water levels comparatively better than many other tree species.”

Bridge Over the Briese

Highlight • Bridge

⚠️ The bridge is now half in the water. If you still want to get to the other side, you can jump over a few stones that have been laid out in the water (see picture).
