Discovering Binz from Baabe

Binz is the largest seaside resort on Rügen and lies north of Sellin – not next door to Baabe, but about half an island away. As a day trip it is still well worth the journey for its beach promenade and spa architecture.

Beach promenade and pier

Binz's beach promenade runs for several kilometres along the water, lined with trees, cafés and hotel villas. The pier is the landmark of the resort.

The beach at Binz is wide and fine-sanded, but in high summer noticeably busier than the beaches on Mönchgut.

Spa architecture

Binz has the largest continuous collection of spa villas on Rügen. White façades, wooden balconies and turrets shape the village, some of them listed buildings.

A walk through the streets behind the promenade is worthwhile even in changeable weather.

Jagdschloss Granitz nearby

Between Binz and Sellin, in the Granitz forest, lies Jagdschloss Granitz. On clear days the view from the central tower reaches across large parts of the island.

The Rasender Roland stops at Jagdschloss, so the lodge and Binz can be combined in one day.

Getting there from Baabe

From Baabe take the car north along the B196, or travel on the Rasender Roland narrow-gauge railway via Sellin to Binz.

By bike the route along the Baltic Coast Cycle Route is considerably longer than to Sellin or Göhren and suits a full day out.

Ferienwohnung Helene is in the seaside resort of Baabe on Mönchgut – Binz is an easy trip from there.
