We cycled easily along a good bike path to Wismar. There, we did extensive sightseeing in a beautiful town, truly worth seeing. The Old Harbor was also worth a visit. Then we cycled back to Poel on the same bike path.

Actually it should go around Poel but the bike paths are extremely poorly signposted. There are delicious fish sandwiches at the port in Timmendorf.

By bike from Poel to Wismar. Explore the city on foot there. Back on the bike. Unfortunately had a breakdown 9 km from the finish.

...with the occasionally sunny November weather, we wanted to go to Timmendorf beach (not to be confused with Timmendorfer Strand 😄) including the lighthouse... but apparently there's nothing going on there in November 🤔... so back to Wismar for fish sandwiches...

The route is very easy to drive on and a sunset at Timmendorfer Strand is just worth seeing.

Very nice bike tour to the island of Poel. There are plenty of benches and rest areas along the entire route. There are also paths near the beach where you can swim undisturbed.

Once again from Wismar to the island of Poel, where the rapeseed blossom queen was chosen in Kirchdorf. We then continued to the beach and along the coast where the sand martins were feeding their young.
