Around Berlin

You’ll certainly have lots of things to do in Berlin, but Brandenburg (the federal state around Berlin ) isn’t short of attractions to enjoy during your stay. Believe it or not, there are about 3.000 lakes in Brandenburg (Europe’s largest landscape of rivers and lakes), plenty of cycling and hiking routes, cozy markets, palaces, parks etc.
