There's a bench on the small jetty where you can enjoy the lovely view of the Küchensee lake... next to the jetty is a small beach. A perfect opportunity to cool your feet after a hike.

View of the Küchensee near Ratzeburg

Highlight • Viewpoint

Wonderful view of the lake. If you drive from Rutzenburg direction 🧭 Möhn from the best right side take the path to the left of the lake is difficult to drive a lot of sand and bad forest trails.

Shortly before we return to Hamburg from our short vacation at the Schaalsee, we want to see where we would have ended up in the Küchensee with our kayak today.

After the canoe tour, we used the time until the restaurant opened to go for a walk along the Küchensee. But I can't say anything about the restaurant because we decided at short notice to go straight home.
