Flaeming Camping Oehna

The Flaeming-Skate is integrated in the national cycling network, so cyclists can set off from the site and zoom around the country. From here you can join up with the Spree-Radweg, Gurkenradweg, Radfernweg Berlin-Leipzig and Elbe cycle paths within a day’s ride, not to mention the epic Euroroute R1 that passes through 11 countries. Rather travel by car? The 475-square-kilometre Spreewald Biosphere Reserve is an hour away for kayaking through the UNESCO-registered network of forested streams. The palaces of Potsdam – home to yet another biosphere reserve in this nature-rich area – are around the same distance, while the well-preserved university town of Wittenberg takes 45 minutes. For culture closer to home, the Cistercian Zinna Abbey is 20 minutes from the site and walkers can be back in nature with the hikes along a riverside path in Nuthe in another 10 minutes. But what about the kids? A sizeable swimming complex is a 25-minute drive away… or they can stay dry while seeking thrills at a go-karting and leisure centre within 20 minutes.
