The nature around the Large and Small Lienewitz lakes is a paradise - both lakes are part of the nature reserve "Lienewitz-Caputher Seen- und Feuchtgebietskette" and home to more than 100 bird species that use the area as a breeding and/or feeding area. Endangered animal species are also native to the nature reserve, e.B garlic toad, ringed snake and mud pest.

Route description:

From Caputh Schwielowsee station, walk up Geschwister-Scholl-Straße and turn right into Kastanienallee and follow the footpath along the tracks to the clinkered Red Bridge. The path now leads you to the left past the Motor-Cross track. At the crossroads, turn right and pass an inhabited, former nursery and turn left onto the 66-Seewanderweg (marking: blue dot) and follow the path further and further to Großer Lienewitz See. Here you will find a bathing area and a sunbathing lawn. The shore zones are naturally overgrown with reed and floating leaf communities and surrounded by sedge reeds. Around the Lienewitzsee, the trail leads through a varied nature of alder quarries and alder-ash forests. At the village of Lienewitz, turn right and then left to the Kleiner Lienewitzsee, where you will find the natural monument, the so-called "Kurfürsteneiche" with a trunk circumference of almost 6 m and a diameter of about 1.80 m. On the cobblestone road, turn left and after the railway bridge turn left again into the forest path, which is lined with old oak trees. At the end, turn right into a large forest path that leads you to the district of Flottstelle. Cross the street at the bus stop and you will find yourself at the former wooden storage point for rafting in Flottstelle. The forest path leads you along the Schwielowsee until you meet the road you cross at the Caputh turning point. After the bridge, turn left and come back to the starting point of the hike.
