Set on an island between the Plauer See and Fleesensee, Malchow traces its origins back almost 900 years. A popular holiday destination in the Mecklenburg Lake District, the town is an appealing springboard for adventurous visitors to the Müritz National Park, as well as more relaxed travellers eager to admire heritage properties and savour seasonal cuisine. Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway or a fun-filled trip with friends and family, you can expect a warm welcome at the best places to stay in Malchow.
Amble around Malchow to admire red-roofed houses lining narrow streets on both the island and the mainland, connected by a swing bridge on an earth dam. Tour the 1298-built Malchow Abbey, with its towering spire, and Mecklenburg Organ Museum, and marvel at the picturesque windmill before kicking back in a café with views of the water. Boat trips, sailing excursions, kayaking and swimming in the surrounding lakes are fabulous in the warmer summer months.
Venture further afield to hike in the woods of the Müritz National Park, follow mountain bike trails around lakes and alongside rivers, or spot birds in the moors and marshland. Malchow also plays host to an annual island swim, as well as some charming late summer festivals.
