May 1, 2025,Von Krölpa um die Plothener Teiche
I chose this scenic tour from Komoot for May 1st.

I can't recommend it, though.

The recommended trails were only partially suitable for cycling – a lot of gravel. The return trip was a bit more pleasant.

But as a hiking destination, the Plothen Ponds are definitely recommended!
