Kranichsberg

Kranichsberg is a hilltop at the eastern edge of Berlin that rises above the surrounding landscape. From this position, visitors can see across Brandenburg's lakes and forests.

The area developed during Germany's early industrialization period and left traces of early 20th-century settlements behind. These remains show how people used and shaped the region back then.

The summit serves as a meeting place for people who explore the surrounding nature and help maintain the trails. Visitors will find regular organized walks happening here, showing how much this spot matters to locals.

Marked trails begin from Woltersdorf tram station and are simple to follow. Rest areas are spaced along the path, making the hike comfortable for most visitors.

Exposed rock layers reveal traces of the last ice age and tell an observant visitor about the region's geological history. These formations are often overlooked, but they show how dramatically the landscape changed over time.
