Highlight • Rest Area

If you come from Graal-Müritz by bike, it's best to use the ferry to get over to the old stream and the lake promenade. (approx. 3.20 euros for one person with a bike.)

July 22, 2022,Fahrradtour eben bis hinter Gral Müritz und zurück, hatten Termine

Today briefly in the other direction, it was planned differently, but looking at the dark clouds in the direction of Rostock, just somewhere else, we've been there before, but a lot has changed in the 3 years.

Beautiful views of the moorland from the viewing platforms. It's also very nice on the beach. The route mostly leads through the forest, the path is a bumpy road. That spoils the mood a bit.

June 13, 2024,Eben mal nach Warnemünde...... na ja.

Even on the way there I wasn't in a particularly good mood because of the stressful ride through the forest. Lots of cyclists, wet ground and a bit of rain. It was much nicer to ride to Wustrow.

Today we started our cycling trip in sunshine and ended the day in Warnemünde with a cloudburst. What timing, we checked into the DJH just as the first drops of rain were falling.

Phew, it was chilly today 🥶 especially in Warnemünde. It was better on the way through the forest and behind the dunes and so we were still able to enjoy the beautiful route. The absolute highlight was the natural beach. There was no Aperol today, but there were hot drinks with a shot.
