We cycled along beautiful cycle paths, always along the sea.

In Heiligendamm there are sections where pushing bicycles is prohibited.

You can do the route to Wismar and from there by ship back to Kuehlungsborn! :)

Of course we didn't go through the Baltic Sea 🫣 somehow Komoot got that a bit wrong 🤷🏼 we went back the same way we went to the ghost forest. We were really unlucky with the weather on the way. Rain, wind and cold accompanied us for quite a long time, but it was still a nice tour.

Beautiful relaxed route for children and cones. Nothing for racing bikes, as there are too many pedestrians and recreational cyclists on the road.
