Ahlbeck (near Ueckermünde)

The municipality of Ahlbeck is located at the eastern part of the Ueckermünde Heath, which is an extensive forest area near the Polish border. With the districts Gegensee and Ludwigshof, Ahlbeck surrounds the northwestern part of a former lake drained by colonists (Ahlbecker See). This wetland, called Seegrund, is a nature reserve about six kilometres long and about two kilometres wide. The Neuwarper See - a bay of the Szczecin Lagoon - is about five kilometres away from Ahlbeck. A military training area of the Bundeswehr takes its place in the southwest of Ahlbeck (Karpin - Spechtberg - Drögeheide). The nearest town is Eggesin and it is eight kilometres away.

• Gegensee - with some thatched timber framed houses from the Wilhelmine Period and a holiday settlement (bungalows and huts)
• Ludwigshof (a district since 1912) - including a riding stable and the Ludwigshofer See
