The climb up the 55-meter-high Chimborazo is worthwhile. There's a summit cross and a summit book, but unfortunately, no view.

The east side is great for riding on hard-packed gravel. The path is also easy to ride because it is entirely flat and in the forest, so the wind doesn't "attack" you.

Great circular route around the lake that can be ridden easily, without any problems and without any further difficulty. A great tour through a beautiful (lake) landscape, a very varied circuit variant.

There are only a few places where there is “open” access to the shore. The view of the lake from the shore is awesome. Very nice place. Just stop briefly and capture the beautiful perspectives of the lake.

Whether for a meal in the restaurant, a visit to the beer garden or at night the water fountains. The bathhouse is always worth it.
