Pilgrimage routes in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern

Mindful hiking

Step by step away from the hectic everyday life to deceleration, peace and mindfulness. A hiking break in the unique nature between the Baltic Sea and the Lake District brings body, mind and soul into harmony.

The Helpter Berg - Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania's highest peak - measures 179 meters. That's enough to get the girlfriends out of breath! Of course, don't forget to sign the summit book!

Fresh expanse, fragrant silence, wild grace and natural energy

Mecklenburg-Vorpommern is a source of strength that stimulates all the senses. Whether spiritual or mental hiking, the aim is often to leave the stress behind and come closer to yourself with every step. Blue horizons, the gentle sound of the sea, fresh forest air and tranquil lakes make it easy to slow down and be completely in the here and now.

Pilgrimage trails

The old pilgrimage trails promise heavenly peace and blissful inspiration. In the midst of calming vastness and liberating silence. On the Via Baltica, the St. James pilgrimage route of St. Birgitta of Sweden or the Mecklenburg Lake District pilgrimage route, pilgrims come very close to heaven. You hike through forests and meadows, fishing villages and Hanseatic towns and past lakes and rivers to the imposing brick witnesses of medieval reverence for God.

 

Mindful hiking

When mindful or meditative hiking, the destination is not important. The focus is on the need to calm down, enjoy the moment and discover new experiences of nature. The equilibrium of walking allows you to pause, leave the stresses of everyday life behind and find yourself.
