Forget the gym – we offer a real workout with a purpose! In the middle of one of Mecklenburg's most beautiful nature reserves, on the highest lake in the region, the Black Lake, there is an old wooden path that needs your help.
Imagine: a mystical moor, surrounded by ancient beech forests and rare plants and animals. Right there, a hiking trail leads through it, slowly falling into disrepair.
Your mission: 1. Get stuck in, because we'll be hauling, building and repairing the wooden boardwalk together. Every aching muscle is proof that you've achieved something! 2. Teamwork: You're not alone! We'll rock the project together, pave the way ourselves and see exactly what we've created. 3. Adventure: You'll be working in a place that others only visit for hiking. Pure nature, fresh air and a challenge you won't soon forget.
At the end of the day, you will not only have a safe hiking trail with a new handrail, but also YOUR own work. You will have made a unique place accessible to everyone again.
And you will also have learned a lot, because during the practical work, the foresters will tell you a lot about nature conservation and environmental protection in general, as well as the forest and its protection in particular. You will learn a lot about the local flora and fauna, its relevance to the ecosystem and the various measures taken to protect it.

The Black Lake west of Schlemmin (Bernitt municipality) is located near Bützow in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. It is part of the Hohe Burg and Black Lake nature reserve.

The lake is one to two metres deep, covers an area of 2.5 hectares and, at 108 metres above sea level, is the highest lake in Mecklenburg. The lake is completely surrounded by beech forests. The lake's 15-hectare silted-up moor is home to rare and endangered plant species such as round-leaved sundew and snake club moss. The area also provides a habitat for moor frogs, grass snakes, forest lizards, black woodpeckers, treecreepers, red-breasted flycatchers, badgers and numerous other species.
