The River Havel and Potsdam’s and Brandenburg’s Havel lakes make up a stunning water landscape and a cultural landscape steeped in history between two historic towns. From the water all around Potsdam you can see the history and architecture of great Prussian kings, and further downstream you discover the orchards of the “Muckersche”. You pass idyllic villages and meadows and finally reach the town of Brandenburg an der Havel, the cradle of Mark Brandenburg. This is where Slavs and bishops were immortalised. A detour to Lake Beetzsee and Lake Plauer See make this the perfect boat trip.
