After the doctor said that I should hike and cycle again without hesitation, I started today with a small tour around Lake Richtenberger 😊
A small Eldorado for waterfowl is there and on the eastern side of the lake you can walk almost completely directly on the water - if not suddenly a willow wire would block the way 🙈 …

A beautiful route with multiple lake access points. The only drawback: from kilometers 3.7 to 5.4, you have to run parallel to the L22 and L192.

Since the moor hike at Triebsees didn't quite work out and we were passing Richtenberger Lake, we stopped there again.
🅿️ Peti's Ice Cream Parlor by the Lake (unfortunately only open until 5 p.m.)

From there, we circled the lake. The last part, unfortunately, ran alongside the road, but still had a view of the lake.

Parked 🅿️ (for free) at Peti's iced coffee and then walked around the lake as legally as possible ⚠️🦉.

Richtenberger See, also known as Franzburg-Richtenberger See, is located between the towns of Franzburg and Richtenberg in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The lake has an area of about 130 hectares and was first mentioned in the 13th century. It is unclear whether the lake is of natural origin or was created by monks from the Neuenkamp monastery (now Franzburg).
