Durchbruchstal der Warnow und Mildenitz

The protected area encompasses an 80-hectare valley where the Mildenitz River joins the Warnow River through steep slopes covered with mixed forests.

The valley formation dates back to the last Ice Age when massive glacier movements carved the landscape, creating distinctive moraine features and depositing numerous boulders.

The protected area includes remnants of a Slavic hillfort, which has stood on these grounds for more than a millennium, with informative panels explaining its significance.

Marked hiking trails lead through the nature reserve, starting from a parking area near Gross Görnow with information boards about the regional features.

The area contains one of the largest gorges in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and preserves a three-kilometer river section that remains free from water engineering modifications.
