Quiet place between Havel and Elbe
A private backyard near Plattenburg, with tent pitches nestled beneath tall poplars. In the morning, deer graze across the meadow, swans are part of the scenery. Views overlook the Viesecker mixed forest, otherwise little happens here. Children have plenty of space to play. It's about thirty kilometers to both the Elbe and Havel rivers; the farm lies roughly midway between Hamburg and Berlin. A detour to the Uenglinger Tor in Stendal, beyond the Elbe, is worth the trip.1
What Hinterland writes
„Place under tall poplars among deer and swans. A private backyard with peace, space and play opportunities for children.
30 km to the Elbe and 30 km to the Havel... Centered between Hamburg and Berlin with a view of the quiet Vieseckermischwald.“

Sights in the area1
Uenglinger Tor
The brick-Gothic city gate in Stendal, one of the finest in the Altmark. A short stop on the way into town for anyone who likes medieval brickwork.
Räbel Ferry
A small cable ferry across the Elbe near Werben, driven by the current alone without a motor. The quiet way to the far bank, easy by bike.
Potsdam
About 94 kilometres away, the palace city on the Havel with the parks of Sanssouci. A full day trip, good for rainy days in the museums as well.
