"Strausberg" Strausberg by MD2nd

Strausberg Travel Guide: 11 reviews and 87 photos

Strausberg is a city surrounded by forests, fields, and lakes. It's an inviting area for doing family vacation or sporting activities. Not sure yet whether this lake has all over public entries? Now, winter to me is the most awful season of the year but bearing with winter at a location like this one, does help to stand the dark & coldness.

Something I really did appreciate about Strausberg's landscape despite my dislike of winter: the light that casts a beautiful blue dim over the snow covered fields, when the sun begins to set.

Strausberg is a small city of about 26.000 inhabitants. It's yet a spot that does offer good reason for exploring town and beautiful region of Brandenburg in particular.

Driving about 40 km up east from Berlin, I made it to Strausberg twice for doing a short visit. And though I think half the fun is actually to simply drive there, as Brandenburg's scenic roads and byways are most marvelous, the town yet provids with its beautiful lake, church, parks, places, a neat mall, and very kind locals.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Many sightings along the way.
Cons:Many road constructions & traffic jams.
In a nutshell:Very kind locals. A far and wide lovely landscape.
