In 1870 about 800 French prisoners of war arrive in Schwerin. Some of them had to create a path from the Kalkwerder bathing establishment to the Seevilla am Schweriner See. The origin of the workers gave it its name: Franzosenweg.

This section of the route is paved, in very good condition and therefore ideally suited for pedestrians and cyclists. There can be a lot going on here on sunny days. Attention! Cars are also allowed to drive along here.

Nice varied section of the route around the Schwerin lakes. From asphalt and gravel to forest paths, everything is included and therefore ideal for gravel bikes. There are also beautiful views of the castle from various viewpoints.
