Chorin

Organic farm Engler

A small organic farm in the heart of the Schorfheide-Chorin Biosphere Reserve, surrounded by organic fields and traditional orchards with old apple varieties. The Hoopoe nests nearby; otherwise, things are quiet and family-friendly. In the morning, birdsong, otherwise peaceful. The bathing lake in the village is five minutes by bike. Chorin Monastery is within reach, as is the Niederfinow Ship Lift and the Brodowin Ecovillage. Foxes and hares, as they say here.1

Sights in the area1

Chorin Monastery

The brick-gothic ruin of a 13th-century Cistercian monastery; in summer the Choriner Musiksommer concerts fill the nave, otherwise a quiet place to wander.

Niederfinow Boat Lift

The old boat lift on the Oder-Havel Canal raises whole barges some 36 metres; from the platform you can watch the steel giant at work, one for the technically curious.

Brodowin Eco-Village

A well-known Demeter village in the biosphere reserve; tours of the organic farm and dairy make it tangible for children, in any weather.

Grumsin Forest

The Grumsin forest is part of the UNESCO World Heritage of ancient beech forests; marked loops lead through old-growth stands, a place for long walks.
