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.

Hike around the Küchensee..it was too cold and too windy for me to cycle. Also, I didn't want speed. I was in need of some rest and my thoughts could wander. Both worked successfully.

Did a little loop around the Küchensee near Ratzeburg. It was found that the Hof Farchau and the water mill were beautifully prepared. Go to their site and look at the rented objects. Class! But the prices are not without. 😳
