The route runs almost entirely along the lake or near the lake. Plön and Malente are connected by the legendary “5-lakes trip” by boat – and now also by bike. With a view of the lakes, you cycle through the nature park landscape, past Plön Castle or the Timmdorf and Malente smokehouses. The tour even touches 9 lakes!

July 18, 2022,5 Seen-Tour mit Abstecher zum Immenhof

Today we started the 5 lakes tour in Malente. A comfortable, relaxed tour, during which we took a break at some lakes and looked at Plön Castle. It went past fields, through forests, to beautiful thatched houses, as well as to the Dieksee, Behlersee, Schöhsee, large Plönersee and Suhrer See. Finally, we made a detour to the Immenhof, which some …

I'd seen Plön, circled Lake Plön, and checked into my accommodation.
So, for a change, I set off without any luggage and rode the 5-Lakes Route. A beautiful tour, but apart from Plön and Malente, there weren't many lakes to see... 🤔
A gravel bike would have been an advantage here and there 😁

Day 3: After yesterday's hiking tour, we cycled from Gremsmühlen through Holstein Switzerland north past Dieksee and Behler See to Plön.

The district town of Plön is a beautiful city in a great location, surrounded by various large and small lakes. Circumnavigating all of these would certainly be another worthwhile tour. Plön itself has many beautiful corners. Starting with the …

A highly recommended route from Plön with plenty of water, forest, and views. The trails were very varied. At times, we deviated from the official route and rode on dirt roads instead of roads.

August 16, 2022,9 Seen Runde

Today the way led me to Malente to eat ice cream. On the round I circled 9 lakes!
The Edebergsee, Höftsee, Kleiner Madebrökensee, Großer Madebrökensee, Behler See, Dieksee Trentsee, Schmarksee and the Schöhsee.
I could see some lakes well from the bike, but not others around.
