Travel The World Vol. 9 - Ruegen

Rügen, Baltic Sea, Mecklenburg - Western Pomerania, Germany

The island of Rügen (Rugia) is Germany's largest island (about 975km²) and one of the main tourism destinations. It is popular for both natives and foreigners.









Despite being an island, Rügen offers various landscape forms: different types of beaches, chalk cliffs, beech forests, fens, agriculture. Several parks and reservations ensure the preservation of the natural heritage.











The cities and villages of Rügen are famous for their architecture, the so-called spa style. Every town is less than ten kilometres apart from the coast.










While the peak tourist season is clearly the summer, winter can has it's own magic.
