Kaninchenwerder
A nature-reserve island in Lake Schwerin, with a loop trail through the woods, a wooden lookout tower and a bird habitat on the lake.
Kaninchenwerder is a small island in Lake Schwerin, part of a nature reserve. It has a loop trail, a wooden observation tower and a simple restaurant, with views of the castle and the town across the water. It is also an important habitat for birds on the lake. In summer, a small ferry from the Zippendorf lakeshore takes about 10 minutes to reach the island, and some lake cruises also stop there. The loop takes about an hour. Visitors must follow reserve rules and keep to the paths.

Ferry runs about May–September
