Hostel Born-Ibenhorst
Our hostel village is situated in Darß Primeval Forest between the bay and the Baltic Sea. The best way to explore the peninsula is by bicycle. Admire the rugged beauty of nature all around and just relax. Climb the steps of Darßer Ort Lighthouse and you’ll be rewarded with a breathtaking view. Visit the former artist colony of Ahrenshoop, stroll through fishing villages and dive into the hustle and bustle of modern seaside resorts. Enjoy summer life on endless sandy beaches: the place to meet people, build sand castles, get a tan, ideal for swimming, surfing, kite surfing ... So much to do!
