Nature
Park Mecklenburgische Schweiz and Lake Kummerower See |
The Nature Park "Mecklenburgische
Schweiz and Lake Kummerower See" is situated in the heart of
Mecklenburg/West-Pomerania. Its landscape, typical for the region and
shaped by the last Ice Age, shows a special variety and numerous
peculiarities. Differences of altitude of more than 1000 metres let the
landscape seem very varied and reminds of the forms of the hill
countries. Embedded by the hills, we find a lot of lakes. Lake
Kummerower See and Lake Malchiner See belong to the larger ones in
Germany. Its water level is very close to the level of the Baltic Sea. The Peene, a slowly running meadow river, houses a lot of very rare animals, among them the beaver, in its embankment overgrown with reeds and in the largest area of lower moors in Germany. |
