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.

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.

Very varied, very nice tour. I have known Tollensesee for a long, very long time and have spent a lot of time here. Nevertheless, this new round surprised me once again. Never boring, always different, newly discovered and I can only recommend this tour around the lake.
