It's good that there is also a bike path here. The street is not safe.

August 17, 2022,*No E-Bike*Kochelsee Umrundung incl. Schwimmen

There is no official cycle path around Kochelsee. So we tried to complete the round via the rocky path. But the path is gravelly, steep and not necessarily suitable for cyclists, just a hiking trail. But the landscape makes up for it. A beautiful lake in a great landscape.

There's no bike path around the lake. Always riding along the road in heavy traffic isn't fun. There aren't any sights worth seeing, at least not on the route we took. The only thing you can do here is go swimming.
