Bakenberg - Mönchgut Peninsula

● Gager

At 66 meters, the Bakenberg is the highest point on the hilly Mönchgut Peninsula and offers unique views across the Mönchgut landscape all the way to the island of Vilm. The Mönchgut Peninsula, with its gently rolling hills, lagoons, bays, and headlands, resembles a small archipelago. Mönchgut was already a popular travel destination during the Romantic era. Here, picturesque scenes—thatched-roof fishermen’s cottages, the hills, the coarse-wooled Pomeranian land sheep—have always been, and still are today, a source of inspiration—and above all, these views from the “Zicker Alps,” which rise up to 60 meters high. The peninsula’s unspoiled nature attracted Romantic-era artists. In 1801, Caspar David Friedrich sketched the Mönchgut coast from a hill on the Nordperd near Göhren.
