Near the church is a picnic area for hiker and cyclists. The adjacent snack-bar offers the needed refreshments after strenuous walks. 

Overnight accommodations are also available in the village, either at the lovely renovated estate or at an avant-garde wooden house.

Altkünkendorf is a great starting point for walks to different landmarks like the Glambecker Mill, the base and event place of the National Park Schorfheide-Chorin, or the Blocksberg, with 139 metres the highest 'mountain' in the area.

The area around Altkünkendorf is nearly all part of the Nature Reserve. The UNESCO sanctuary Zur Großen Wiese was established for the settlement of the great bittern. It makes bird watching possible.
