Water sports and culture in the new Ratzeburg Youth Hostel

The island town of Ratzeburg is in the middle of the Lauenburg Lakes Nature Park. The town centre is surrounded on all sides by lakes and promises a wealth of outdoor activities in and around the water. Located directly on the lake, Ratzeburg Youth Hostel, newly built in 2012, is a modern property with a cosy ambience. A lakeside terrace and rooftop offer beautiful views of Ratzeburg lake. The nearby lakeside bathing site is a delightful place in which to spend a beautiful summer's day. And anyone who wants to relax can unwind in the hostel's sauna.
