Boltenhagen coastal protection forest

Boltenhagen coastal protection forest
Close to the city center is the recreational forest, a centuries-old "green pharmacy" that combines tranquility and activity. The forest is part of the coastal protection area and protects the Baltic seaside resort from storm surges. It offers recreation, serves the climate and contributes to soil protection. It is home to a species-rich mixed pine forest with pine and beech trees, some of which are centuries old. They provide shade and ensure a pleasant climate in summer. The forest invites you to stroll along enchanted paths or take a break on one of the benches. TIP: In winter, when the trees are bare, the deep black silhouettes of the trees create a mystical natural ensemble. The stark contrast to the clear winter sky is fascinating.

Boltenhagen coastal protection forest - centuries-old natural area on the Baltic Sea

The Boltenhagen coastal protection forest is located close to the town center and invites visitors to the Baltic Sea resort to take long walks. The species-rich mixed pine forest is one of the oldest natural areas on the Mecklenburg Baltic Sea coast and is known as the "green pharmacy" for good reason. Centuries-old pines and beeches provide pleasant shade in summer and ensure a balanced climate.

Coastal protection, climate and relaxation in the heart of the Baltic Sea resort

As part of the official coastal protection area, the forest fulfills an important ecological function: it protects the Baltic seaside resort of Boltenhagen from storm surges, contributes to the regional climate balance and protects the soil. Similar to the Vorpommersche Boddenlandschaft National Park or the Darß on Fischland-Darß-Zingst, this forest in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern also stands for the special value of mature coastal landscapes.

Enchanted forest paths - particularly attractive in winter

The forest can be explored all year round on quiet paths between mighty tree trunks. If you come to Boltenhagen in winter, you will experience a very special natural spectacle: When the deciduous trees are bare, deep black silhouettes of trees stand out against the clear winter sky, creating a mystical-looking ensemble that fascinates photographers and nature lovers alike.
