A small town on the edge of a lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Neukloster is a lovely destination for a relaxed weekend away. Easily accessible from Rostock, the area is particularly popular with outdoorsy couples, friends and families, who can enjoy a plethora of activities on both land and water. There are some characterful guesthouses and small hotels on the edge of Lake Neukloster, with the best places to stay in Neukloster promising pretty stretches of private beach, and idyllic lake views.

Lake Neukloster traces its origins all the way back to the Ice Age. The town, by contrast, emerged in the Middle Ages, with a fortified castle and convent. Both have since disappeared, and modern-day Neukloster is a leafy town of red-roofed buildings with colourful awnings framing independent shops, cafés and eateries. Delve into the region’s past at the Schweirn Museum or the Barlach Museum, both of which boast interesting collections.

Most visitors, however, are drawn to the refreshing waters of Lake Neukloster. Hire kayaks, go fishing or enjoy sailing on warm summer days. Sandcastle-building and afternoon picnics are popular with families, as are lakeside strolls. You’ll find forested cycling and horse riding trails, too.
