Plattenburg's geographical location is particularly charming. The town lies on the edge of the Westhavelland Nature Park and is home to the impressive Plattenburg Castle complex. Here, visitors can experience the life of a bygone era up close and embark on an exciting journey of discovery through history.

In addition to the castle, there are other tourist attractions to discover, such as the Stork Tower or the Church of St. Mary. There are also cultural highlights here: the annual castle festival attracts numerous visitors every year and offers a colourful programme for young and old.

Those who enjoy culinary delights will also find what they are looking for in Plattenburg: From traditional potato dishes to hearty game specialities - here every gourmet gets their money's worth.

For outdoor fans, there are plenty of opportunities to be active: Hiking in the Westhavelland Nature Park or cycling along the Elbe are just a few examples. In winter, you can also go ice skating on frozen lakes or skiing in the surrounding mountains.

Even when the weather is bad, you don't have to stay idle: A visit to a museum or a leisurely day in a café invite you to sit back and relax.

    Die Tour lässt sich sehr gut reiten und verläuft vorwiegend auf Sandwegen durch lichte Kiefernwälder und Felder. Aktuelle Wegänderungen, 1. südlich von Pritzwalk, die Bahnquerung nach Giesendorf existiert nicht mehr, alternative Route über Kuhbier nach Wolfshagen. 2. die Weganbindung von Balow nach Klein Warnow ist nicht mehr durchgehend bereitbar, alternative Route von Balow nach Werle von dort nach Klein Warnow (Klein Warnow ist ein guter Startpunkt für die Tour) 3. Die Plattenburg wird zur Zeit (2020) nicht mehr bewirtschaftet, alternative Unterkunft Pension Rosenfeld. Die in einem weiteren Kommentar angesprochenen Brücke bei Perleberg lässt sich mit einem ruhigen Pferd gut bewältigen. Mein ausführlicher Reisebericht auf meiner Seite: https://www.pferdefrauen.de/schloesser-und-burgentour-prignitz-180-km-8-tage/

    Die Schlösser- & Burgentour ist eine sehr schön ausgearbeitete Tour. Meine Frau und ich waren sehr angetan von der wundervollen Landschaft. Die Unterkünfte waren gut gewählt. Es gab aber auch Kritik. Sicherlich ist es dem Umstand geschuldet, dass die Tour noch nicht geritten wurde. Im Bereich Perleberg geht die Tour über die B189. Diese Überquerung über die Schnellstraße führt über eine schmale Fußgänger-/Fahrradbrücke. Für unsere Pferde war die Brücke ungeeignet. Wir mussten die Pferde aufladen und konnten so das Hindernis umfahren. Ein weiters Handicap gab es im Bereich des Flusses Kathane, hier fehlt die Brücke schon seit Jahren. Auch waren einige Wege, die in der Karte eingezeichnet waren, mittlerweile umgepflügt. Trotz der genannten Hindernisse ist die Tour empfehlenswert.

    Bin diesen Weg von Bötzow nach Bad Wilsnack gepilgert und muss sagen: Ein Kleinod. Die Landschaft ist wunderschön, die Menschen sind aufgeschlossen und wer gern allein unterwegs ist, für den sollte dieser Weg ein Muss sein... Zum Nachlesen: http://wordpress.thebackpacker.de/?cat=137
