What defines riding in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern?

Mecklenburg-Vorpommern stretches along Germany's northeastern Baltic coast, where chalk cliffs at Jasmund National Park rise above ancient beech forests and long sandy beaches. Glacial forces shaped the interior into wide lakes, rolling moraines, and the vast wetlands of Müritz National Park, home to cranes, white-tailed eagles, and otters. Brick Gothic cathedrals, manor houses, and UNESCO-listed medieval town centres anchor a heritage that spans centuries. Schwerin and Rostock bring the region's history and culture to life at its heart.
