This tour wasn't all that nice either😜Except for the few sections along the water, which were really beautiful—road, road, road! The section along the Kiel Canal made it a bit better🍀
But, another challenge checked off 💪👟

Unfortunately, there is no direct path all the way around the lake, so you have to make a big detour on the south bank. The paths are mostly asphalt, but there are also beautiful places with hiking trails right by the lake.
Sehestedt, Bünsdorf and Groß Wittensee are worth a visit. There are many beautiful bathing spots around the lake …

Today, the three of us siblings walked around the Wittensee as part of the lake challenge. The sections along the road to Sehestedt and the last stretch took quite a while. But the November weather played along and our food was good. At the end, we were happy and satisfied.

Poncho test: yes, you can walk for 4 hours in the rain.

Answer: doing is like wanting, only more extreme :-), others wouldn't have started walking at all.

Today we set off very early in the morning to walk around the second to last lake. The early bird catches the worm at the moment, and today was a good day. We started in beautiful weather and finished the tour with rain jackets and umbrellas ☔.
