Theodor Fontane was particularly impressed in his time by the Schenkenländchen region, especially Lake Teupitzer See. He talked about it in his work “Wanderungen durch die Mark Brandenburg”. This section of the route is therefore particularly associated with the man who gave his name to our “Fontanewanderweg”. The route runs from Lake Teupitzer See to Lake Tornower See with its bubbling natural springs and the Mittelmühle, once a water mill and now a saw mill.

Walkers will enjoy a varied tour through forests and meadows, along shore paths with impressive views and through little idyllic towns and villages. Here, we can see one of the most beautiful sides of the Mark Brandenburg region. In Egsdorf, walkers can experience one of the most stunning views as they rest by Lake Teupitzer See. On the path to Motzen, there are quiet areas right by Lake Töpchiner See where visitors can have a rest for a while. The hiking trail can easily be combined with the Lake Klein Köriser See circular trail (the second most popular hiking route in Brandenburg) and crosses the E10 European Long-Distance Path in Groß Köris, by Lake Töpchiner See and in Motzen. Cafés and restaurants along the route are ideal for a short break. 

Length: about 6 kilometres to Teupitz, about 1.5 hours; about 20 kilometres to Motzen, about 6 hours
