At almost 30 kilometres, the COUNTRY route is the longest. It crosses a highly varied, often agricultural landscape, characterised by forestry, livestock farming and fishing.

Despite its length, it is a very pleasant walking route on predominantly flat sandy ground, largely away from road traffic. On this trail you pass the churches in Kladow and Gatow, the parish churches of Weinberg and Staaken and the thatched-roof chapel at Groß-Glienicker See.

The route between Laurenziuskirche and the parish church in Staaken is accessible for people with a disability.

There is a paved, family-friendly route from Gnadenkirche in Wilhelmstadt to the village church in Gatow.
