May 15, 2023,Müritzsee 2023 - 2. Radtour - Fahrt um den Kölpinsee und den Fleesensee

Second day of our short holiday in the Mecklenburg Lake District!
Today we started south of Waren/Müritz. First we drove through beautiful forest areas on a bicycle road to the Kölpinsee near Damerow. At the lake we turned right towards Jabel, Nossentin and Silz. Unfortunately, we only saw the Fleesensee or Malchower See shortly before the town of Malchow.
There …

June 30, 2026,Alleeweg Grabenitz–Poppentin – Blick auf den Kölpinsee Runde von Waren (Müritz)

In the best weather with a pleasant 25 to 26 degrees, I did a loop from Waren to Malchow and back.

What can I say? The bike paths here are in a significantly better condition than back home in Hamm and the surrounding area. Now and then you notice a few tree roots, but that's nothing compared to our routes. …

Today, another fantastic tour around Lake Kölpensee and Lake Fleesensee from Waren to Malchow and back, along well-maintained cycle paths and forest trails as well as back roads. The weather was also very nice again. You can really cycle anywhere here. If you ever want to stay overnight in Waren with your bike, I can wholeheartedly recommend the Radlon Bicycle …

We completed this tour by e-bike. The suggested route was consistently quiet, with very little car traffic. It's a very pleasant ride. In Malchow, at the swing bridge, there are two nice places to eat or take a coffee break. 😉
Highlight: The 1 qm Kaffee in Grabenitz

Hello. Yesterday we started a trip around the two lakes. Cycling on the empty paths is just fun. Only Malchow was quite well attended. But everything is still green.

Today I rode my recumbent bike from Eldenholz to Malchow and Fleesensee. Headwind and with the recumbent bike the hills seem like mountains. But it was also a nice bike ride

The start of the tour was the campsite in Kamerun. Back to Damerow via Malchow - Untergöhren. This way I circled around the Kölpinsee and Fleesensee. Very beautiful route through pine forests and partly on sections of road where there seems to be hardly any traffic. It was very nice to ride.
