Altwarper Binnendünen, Neuwarper See und Riether Werder, Nature reserve near Altwarp, Germany.

The protected area encompasses 1,460 hectares of coastal landscape with inland dunes, wetlands, and the Neuwarper See lake in eastern Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

The landscape formed during the last glacial period 10,000 years ago when meltwater from the Uecker and Randow valleys created a lagoon system.

A memorial with wooden crosses stands in the area, marking mass graves of Russian forced laborers, displaying names and ages of those buried.

Multiple hiking trails connect different sections of the reserve, including a 15-kilometer intermediate route through Juniper Valley from Altwarp.

The inland dunes reach heights of 15 meters through wind displacement, supporting specialized plant species like silver grass and sheep fescue.
