Brandenburg Hiking: Bad Belzig

There is a great hike in southwest Brandenburg, one which I have done several times in the past, that I revisited over the weekend. The times I hiked it before, it was the middle of winter: cold, dreary, grey, and even a bit spooky. This time, the trees were full, farmers were working their fields, and the trails were a pleasure to be on.

I walked the south trail from Wiesenburg to Bad Belzig but there is a north route connecting the same two towns. The north and south can be combined to make a nice 40 kilometre hike. Combined, these trails are considered an art path with many sculptures scattered along the way. One of my favorites: the wolf sculptures, rebar and wood, about a quarter of the way into the south route and shown below.
