Strawberry Time — The Main Season at Karls Farm
When the strawberry season officially begins on May 1st at the KARLS Experience Village in Rövershagen, the most important half-year for the family farm in the Rostock district also starts. Until the end of September, the grounds directly on the B105 between Rostock and the Baltic Sea transform into a bright red summer realm centered around the small red fruit that has made Karls the best-known strawberry producer in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern for decades.
Tradition with an Ever-New Face
Karls opens each season with a batch of new attractions — in 2026, there will be 19. The XXL Karlchen at the entrance, the decorated flatbed trailers, the farmyards adorned with colorful pennants, and the artisanal shop windows embody the promise: Here, work is done with fun, craftsmanship, and honest agriculture. Pick-your-own strawberry fields are available not only in Rövershagen but also in Rostock and Ribnitz-Damgarten.
What Defines the Strawberry Season
- Strawberry Market with artisanal products (jams, liqueurs, candies, strawberry bread)
- Frieda's Farm Kitchen with hot dishes and seasonal classics
- Seasonal Specials like Strawberry Hero Burger, Strawberry Döner, milkshakes, waffles
- Open-air pick-your-own fields — accessible right next door or via flatbed trailer
- Large outdoor area with free attractions, playgrounds, and an animal section
Family Fun in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern
Karls Rövershagen is the largest and oldest of the five Karls Experience Villages today and a classic destination for families from all over Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, from the Hanseatic city of Rostock to the Baltic Sea resorts on Fischland-Darß-Zingst. The farm is considered one of the most visited family destinations in Northern Germany and has received the HolidayCheck Gold Award multiple times. Admission is free year-round — you only pay for consumption and individual special attractions.

During the main holiday period from July 3rd to August 23rd, the Experience Village is open daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Outside these times, the standard hours of 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. apply.
