Hello 🚴‍♀️ today it was a lap around the Ratzeburger See and in Ratzeburg (I lived there for the first 5 years of my life). Unfortunately I didn't see a Nandu between Rothenhusen and Bäk today. And who is now wondering: Nandus? then please watch my tour from 22.06.2020...

Bike and Swim: Beautiful bike ride around Lake Ratzeburg with several swimming stops. We chose Rothenhusen as the starting point. This is more or less directly on the A20 and offers a free forest parking lot (of course, the round is also easily possible from Ratzeburg).
On the east bank the terrain goes up and down again and again (the …

85% of the cycle route consists of a sandy path. A mountain bike would be better by bike.
Otherwise nice round with a view of the lake and its sailing boats

A very beautiful tour through nature. The forest paths on the west bank were easily navigable with regular e-bikes when it was dry. On the return trip along the east bank, we preferred a solid surface because it started to rain.
