📍 About the location
The nature protection area 'Wüste und Glase' is a domain of the end moraine landscape in Mecklenburg-West Pomerania. It's a nature protection area since the 22nd of June 1994 and comprised 190 hectare. Because of its privacy and its low exploitation, the condition is seen as very well. There is a Germanic hill fort which alludes to settlement in prior periods. 'Wüste und Glase' in the heart of the area called 'Mecklenburgish Switzerland' is a wide landscape of forests, lakes, hills and lots of animals, so everyone who likes nature will love this place. Excursions are planned, short trips to nearby towns, swimming and short trips to nearby towns.
