Boat factory on the Finow Canal
A small pitch on the Finowkanal near Eberswalde, next to the old Wolfswinkel paper mill — today an industrial ruin. The canal is Germany's oldest still navigable artificial waterway; from the pitch you can see the Wolfswinkeler lock and the Eisenspalterei lifting bridge. Boats pass by during the day. Otherwise it remains quiet. On the towpath opposite, you can follow the canal for kilometers by bike. It's just a few minutes to the Familiengarten, and Eberswalde Zoo is around three kilometers further on.1
What VanSite writes
„At the former 'Papierfabrik Wolfswinkel', an old industrial ruin, you'll find this small parking spot in close proximity with direct access to the Finowkanal. The Finowkanal is, among other things, Germany's oldest artificial waterway that is still navigable.“

Sights in the area1
Towpath along the Finow Canal
The old towpath on the opposite bank runs for kilometres along the water, past locks and lift bridges; flat and shady, good for an unhurried bike ride.
Eberswalde Zoo
The animal park sits about three kilometres from the site and is easy to reach on foot or by bike; the classic outing for a day with children when the weather holds.
Familiengarten Eberswalde
A park for letting off steam just a few minutes from the site; the obvious address when the kids need room to run between two legs of the trip.
Berlin
Around 44 kilometres away lies Berlin; a city day with the Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island makes a fine contrast to the quiet by the canal.
