Thalasso Trail 5 (TZRW)

A wonderful circular walk takes you through the Rostock Heath. The Rostock Heath is a relaxing experience with a high regeneration factor all year round. It is one of the last large closed forest areas on the German Baltic Sea coast and, due to its location and richness of species, a jewel for all recreation seekers and sports enthusiasts.
