Zicker Hills
Zickersche Berge
Treeless grassy hills in the southern part of the Mönchgut peninsula, nicknamed the 'Zicker Alps', with views over the bay and fishing villages.
The highest point of these hills, Bakenberg, is only about 66 metres tall, yet the rolling hay meadows, grazing sheep and wide views have earned them the nickname 'the Alps' from locals. A circular trail of about 5 to 7 km starts from the village of Groß Zicker and offers views over the Greifswald Bay and the small fishing harbours nearby. The area is part of the Southeast Rügen Biosphere Reserve. The slopes offer no shade, so bring plenty of water and sun protection in summer. In the village, an old thatched-roof pastor's house is open to visitors.
