Overview
Kleiner Lienewitzsee is a small forest lake near Michendorf, Brandenburg, listed for FKK bathing along parts of its natural shoreline. There are no marked zones or posted rules, and FKK use appears tolerated rather than formally designated. The setting is quiet and wooded, with grass, earth and sandy patches at the water, partial shade from trees, and calm inland water. There are no toilets, showers, lifeguards, shops or food services, so visits are self-sufficient and usually last a few hours. Daylight summer visits in calm weather are most suitable. Bring supplies, expect uneven paths and limited parking, and respect forest rules and other visitors.

Access is by forest paths with a short walk to the natural shoreline, and the ground can be uneven with grass, earth and sandy patches. Parking in the surrounding area is limited and informal, so allow time to walk from the road and arrive with modest expectations for space near the water.
