    Der Weg ist in Ordnung, die Syntelbuchen sind etwas ganz Besonderes. Wir sind oft dort wandern. Der Rückweg ist nicht optimal. Ich empfehle hinter dem Schloss (in Privatbesitz) in Richtung Hochufer zu gehen. Dort gibt es schöne Ausblicke auf den Großen Jasmunder Bodden und auf die Kaskadenteiche mit einer kleinen Insel. Interessant ist auch die Zeit, wenn der Wald voller Anemonen ist. Die Wanderung ist gut erweiterbar. Bitte aus dem Titel das Neu Mukran entfernen. Der Ort ist ganz woanders.

    Sehr Abwechslungsreich. Sind in umgekehrter Richtung von Binz gestartet. In den Feuersteinfeldern war die Orientierung erschwert, keine Wege und der Ausgang versteckt.

    Super aber lange Tour mit tollen Waldwegen abseits der Straße. Es ist abwechslungsreich und spannend in den Feuersteinfeldern und Prora. Rückfahrt mit der Bahn alle Stunde möglich. 2 Erwachsene mit 2 Hunden 7.60 Euro. In Binz lohnt ein Stück Kuchen auf der Promenade.
