to the middle ages, is a superb starting base to cruise
the navigational area Mecklenburg to Brandenburg with
15 000 hectares of forests, 33 lakes covering over 54
km². the disctrict of Lübz enjoys the most
beautiful countryside in this region. The river Elde
is navigable for 180 km and has only 17 locks. In only
5 hours it is possible to reach Lake Plau one of the
largest lakes in the region, ont the northern banks there
is a nature reserve of 300 hectares, a paradise for those
who love the nature and for the ornithologists.If you
sail just 60 kilometres, crossing several lakes on the
way, you arrive at Schwerin, the county town, where you
can explore its famous castle and other equally well-known
attractions.
Even though the well-kept little port of Lübz is situated near the
town centre, you will find it peaceful ; there is a small store and all
necessary washing facilities. The shops are nearby, or you may prefer to
savour the markets, typical to the region, which open their stalls in the
town on Tuesdays and Fridays.
