The newly printed booklet, which is published twice a year and is highly sought after by both tourists and locals, is now available in all tourist information offices and at many partner businesses in the destination area and can also be ordered free of charge from the shop on the website ( www.seenland-oderspree.de ).
The focus of the nearly 70-page summer issue is water , of which there is plenty in Brandenburg's largest and most water-rich travel region in the form of rivers, lakes, and streams. In addition to the most beautiful lakes for swimming, accommodations with lake views, numerous opportunities for water sports enthusiasts, and restaurants are presented.
Cycling and numerous tour recommendations are also a focus, as the Oder-Spree Lake District is the only travel region in Brandenburg and Eastern Germany to have received certification as an official ADCF cycling region. But it's not just by bicycle; you can also travel to the most beautiful corners of the Oder-Spree Lake District in an environmentally friendly way by bus. The A400 excursion line takes you to the hiking hotspots in the Schlaubetal valley, and the Oderbus 879 takes passengers to the sights of the Oderbruch region. Finally, the cultural calendar is also packed with events: from open-air theater performances and top-class classical concert series to town and village festivals, there's plenty of variety and entertainment during the warmer months. And even festivals are on the summer event calendar.
The " slow trips " offer exciting and profound insights as well as a chance to slow down, and the tourism association was awarded a marketing prize for them at the International Green Weeks. These special experiences give participants time to get to know the country and its people, allowing them to have unique experiences, witness and try out regional traditions and special crafts firsthand, and engage in conversation with locals.
With the sun rising higher, the 2024 picnic season also starts on May 1st. Favorite places in the region meet regionality and give guests and locals a special experience. These and other leisure suggestions and excursion tips for spring and summer in the Oder-Spree Lake District can be found in the magazine, which is also highly recommended to locals when the question arises over dinner, "And what are we actually doing at the weekend?"
