There are many different places that you can stay while you are in Rugen, with each place offering distinct charms and facilities. The more popular and busier seaside resorts are located on the eastern coast of the island, with the two towns of Binz and Sellin being the two largest. However if it is a really gentle and healthy holiday option that you are after, you may wish to explore the many hotels and resorts along the western coast of the island.

A health-boosting holiday in Rugen will probably involve lots of walking as this is what most people do while they are staying on Rugen. The climate on the island is fantastic for walking with an average of about 16 degrees Celsius in August, making a cool summer walking environment. Winter is fine for long walks as well as Rugen stays fairly moderate and doesn’t really ever get below an average of 0 degrees Celsius. These moderate temperate temperatures together with the low rainfall on the island make Rugen an ideal place for outdoor activities like walking.
One of the most obvious places to enjoy a nice walk in Rugen is along one of the many beaches. Fine beaches are accessible from many Ostsee Insel Rügen, and a nice walk along the beach is great for the body, mind and soul of any person. One favourite activity in Rugen is collecting amber that washes up on the shore, and this is a great way to combine treasure hunting with fitness and maybe even get to take home a treasure or two. Searching for amber is best done in rough seas and when the water is cold enough so that the amber can float to the top.
While the beach is probably the obvious choice when it comes to health-boosting walks, there are also two national parks and other fantastic natural places on Rugen where there are great walking tracks as well. Vorpommern Lagoon National Park can be found in the west of the island and includes the island of Hiddensee as well. This park contains some unique coastal fauna and is the home to tens of thousands of cranes and geese at certain times of year. Jasmund National Park is smaller but includes the famous chalk cliffs of Rugen which are probably its most favourite landmark.
These are just some of the many amazing natural places on the island of Rugen where you can enjoy some great health-boosting walks. The wreecher-hof.de – Hotel is a fantastic hotel where you can easily access some of these places and start to enjoy some of the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. Just don’t forget to continue your exercise even when you are back home in your regular routine.
