Hike to Usedom’s Smallest Seaside Resort

Between Koserow and Zempin, at the narrowest point of the island of Usedom—where the Baltic Sea broke through into the Achterwasser during two storm surges in 1872 and 1874— stands the studio in Lüttenort where the renowned painter Otto Niemeyer-Holstein lived and worked until his death in 1984.

At a ditch, we turn right and hike along the edge of the forest to the Damerow Forest House. Here, we keep to the left and arrive at a cove of the Achterwasser. Continuing right along the dike, it’s just a few minutes’ walk to the Otto Niemeyer-Holstein Studio Museum in Lüttenort, which is set in a large garden beneath old trees. Behind the small museum, we walk along the dike—enjoying beautiful views across the Achterwasser—for half an hour to the small, picturesque fishing and angling harbor of Zempin, the smallest seaside resort on Usedom. A short distance off our trail, you’ll find a few
