Peer at the Baltic Sea
A typical Baltic Sea photograph motif – and much more beautiful in reality: the piers. The longest pier in continental Europe is 508 metres long and has been in Heringsdorf since 1995. In neighbouring Ahlbeck, you can find the oldest pier on the island dating back to 1898. Bansin and Zinnowitz also have their own piers. Have a day just to peer!
Usedom on Two Wheels
You merely have to decide where to go on your trip: along the promenade, through the coastal forest, or just take off in the large 150 km network of developed cycling trails. Everywhere is beautiful and hopefully you will be there long enough...
Double the Sailing Experience
You can not only get to know the island of Usedom from another side on the Achterwasser, but you can sail on a rarity: the almost one hundred year old, 46 metre long, two-masted schooner called the “Weisse Düne”.
The Sea at Your Doorstep
This trip is the guests’ first obligation (and enjoyment): strolling along the sea with beautiful views either right on the magnificent sand beach with a view of the water and the coast, or along the splendid seaside resort promenade that connects the imperial spas.
Royal Heringsdorf
Crown prince Wilhelm Friedrich gave the fishing village its name in 1820, and thereafter it proceeded to become the “Nice of the north” in the second half of the century. One wealthy Berliner after another built beautiful villas here. The most beautiful and splendid examples of resort architecture can be found in Delbrück and Puschkinstraße.
Grand History
It is in fact not on Usedom, but the Hanseatic and university town of Greifswald and home town of the painter Caspar David Friedrich is well worth the trip. The cathedral, the Church of Mary (Marienkirche), and the marketplace with the Gothic town hall and north German middle-class houses are quite simply impressive.
Golf at Balmer Lake
The Balmer Lake golf course with its 18-hole championship course and an additional 9-hole green is not far from Heringsdorf and Bansin. Hotel guests are given a green fee reduction. Tip: from hole 9 yellow, you can enjoy a wonderful view of the Achterwasser.
Trip into Space
First, rockets were developed there; then it was a restricted military zone and deep sea port. Today, in the old industrial facilities, you can find out everything about the history and also the historical and international development of space travel to date and then marvel at the rockets, aircraft, and a submarine in the outside area.
Simply Stay Here
Actually, you’re here to take a break. So, just stay where you are. Enjoy beach life and a good book; have heavenly dreams above the sea. That is what it is all about.
