== Geography == Barnim extends from the [[Oder]] River to the outskirts of [[Berlin]]. The Oder River forms the eastern border. From here the [[Oder Havel Canal]] (connecting Oder and Havel) and the historical [[Finow Canal]] lead westwards to Eberswalde and beyond. The portions north of these artificial waterways are called [[Schorfheide]]. This is a forest region with several large lakes, e.g. '''[[Werbellinsee]]''' (8 km<sup>2</sup>), '''[[Grimnitzsee]]''' (8 km<sup>2</sup>) and '''[[Parsteiner See]]''' (10 km<sup>2</sup>). The Schorfheide is a [[UNESCO]] [[Man and Biosphere Reserve Programme|Biosphere Reserve]] and houses several rare animals like the [[white-tailed eagle]], [[greater spotted eagle]], [[osprey]], [[black stork]], [[European beaver]] and [[Eurasian otter]].
