This drone image was taken facing north above the small village of Rathewalde, with a view of the houses and Rathewalder Mühle restaurant. The best way to reach this location is to park at the Parkplatz Rathewalde (50.982276, 14.074823), which costs €0,50 every 30 minutes. Once you've parked, reference the GPS and walk a short seven-minutes south to get to the village. The GPS signals can be pretty bad around the village, so if you can't get a signal, you can launch your drone closer to the parking lot — just make sure to fly your drone as high as you can (~5m) to get the entirety of the village in your shot.
