Nature experience, cultural enjoyment and vastness in their most beautiful form
Brandenburg is more than just the green surroundings of Berlin. It's a region that surprises with its quiet, almost untouched beauty. A land full of lakes, forests, and vast fields, it's perfect for slow travel. Anyone who ventures into Brandenburg will quickly realize: This isn't about superlatives, but rather quiet experiences that resonate.
With over 3.000 lakes, crisscrossed by waterways like the Havel and Spree, Brandenburg invites you to spend relaxing days on the water—whether it's leisurely paddling, a houseboat tour, or a cruise through the Havelland region. Nature lovers will find true sanctuaries in the more than 15 large protected areas, such as the UNESCO Spreewald Biosphere Reserve or the Uckermark Lakes Nature Park, where flora and fauna can thrive largely undisturbed.
But Brandenburg also offers much to discover culturally: Prussian palaces, baroque parks, lovingly preserved old towns, and modern art initiatives in historic industrial sites demonstrate the diverse interplay between past and present. Monasteries, manor houses, and former brickworks are now creating spaces for connoisseurs, art lovers, and those seeking peace and quiet.
Brandenburg is a travel destination for those seeking space to breathe. For those who prefer country roads to highways. And for those who value authenticity, authenticity, and tranquility when traveling—in short, those who want to embrace the adventure of slowness.
