Very nice, not only on foot but also by bike. You do have to lift the bike over a tree trunk now and then, but the smell of the pines, the view of the water and the path itself... pure compensation.

Beautiful, narrow path along the Schmöldesee. You should be somewhat sure-footed.

Nice resting place with a view of the lake through the trees. However, the path to the bench is quite overgrown.

The view of the Klein Köriser See is particularly impressive when you cross the bridge over the connecting canal on the Lübbener Chaussee. From here, the water stretches quietly in both directions, framed by dense forest. The vastness of the lake invites you to simply stop and take in the surroundings. If you explore the area, you will find well-developed hiking trails that run along the shore and repeatedly offer beautiful views of the lake. Away from the bridge, there is even a small staircase (officially forbidden) that leads to an even better photo spot. Especially in spring and autumn, when the colors become more intense, the lake turns into a quiet oasis - ideal for a relaxed hike with your camera in hand.

Nicest lock keeper of the whole tour - we were allowed to leave our canoe here and from here we walked to Prieros to do some shopping and have some ice cream. In addition to the locks, we were given tips for the rest of the tour and a nice chat.
