Description of
the boating holiday
Enjoy a one-week boating holiday itinerary in the heart of the Mecklenburg Lake District, exploring the tranquil Havel River and surrounding canals where you can’t help but be impressed by the rich natural and historical heritage. Visit lakeside villages, moor up and taste local specialities and get up close and personal with fantastic flora and fauna.
Located in the heart of the Ruppiner area and at the crossroads between Mecklenburg and its numerous lakes and Brandenburg in the direction of Berlin, our Nicols base in Fürstenberg is ideally located for exploring the wilderness of this region by canal boat.
Fürstenberg: impressive lakes, a castle and a history of porcelain manufacture
The historic city of Fürstenberg is a great place for a boating holiday base – not only is it crossed by the Havel River but it is also surrounded by the lakes of Röblinsee and Schwedtsee. There are lots of places of interest in Fürstenberg so we recommend spending some time here before setting sail (or at the end of your boating holiday). A visit to the castle introduces the city’s porcelain manufacturing history via the ‘Porzellan Museum’.
Mirow: an idyllic lakeside location
Located on the southern shore of Lake Mirow you will find the peaceful town of Mirow. Visitors will find traditional lakeside houses with thatched roofs as well as the picturesque Castle Mirow and Castle Island (also known as Love Island). The former residence of the Dukes of Mecklenburg can also be visited.
Malchow: Kath. church, Cloister church, Church of the city, DDR museum, Organ museum, Mill
Lübz: City museum, observation tower, water tower, brick monuments, Claudia Ammann workshop of sculpture and stone, planetarium, Inter generation house

Our other boating holidaysfor you
Our dream to hire a canal boat and explore the Mecklenburg Lake District finally came true and it definitely didn’t disappoint. So many memories were made – from the tranquillity of life on the lakes and German hospitality at the many stop-offs, to the flexibility of cruising at our own relaxed pace.
