The Darß Forest (pronounced "Darss", German: Darßwald) is a wooded region on the western coast of the peninsula of Darß on Germany's Baltic coast.
There are no settlements in the forest. Villages on the outskirts are Ahrenshoop and Born in the south and Wieck and Prerow in the east.
The Darß Forest covers an area of 5,800 hectares and is part of the Western Pomeranian Lagoon Region National Park.
The area around Darßer Ort and the northwestern part of the forest belong to conservation zone 1.
Here, the land may not be used for human exploitation and the aim is to allow the areas to develop naturally. (Wikipedia)
To get to the Darss' Lighthouse you either have to hike or use a bicycle.
