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.

Farchauer Mill Canoe Dock

Highlight • Rest Area

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.

Highlight • Bridge

You have beautiful views on both sides here. Water birds like to gather on the bank and are easy to watch.

From the terrace and the associated jetty of the Hotel Der Seehof you have a magnificent view of the Küchensee to the south. When the weather is nice, you can really enjoy a drink here.

This Sunday we went around the Küchesee in Ratzeburg, a quick little lap in drizzle ☔️🌧️

The path is easy to walk, beautiful scenery by the lake and through the forest

This time we met up with the family and added a culinary level to the hike with ice cream in Ratzeburg, asparagus, fish and coffee and cake in the Farchauer Mühle. 😀

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.

After an organ matinee in the cathedral, we took a leisurely stroll around the Ratzeburg kitchen lake on Easter Monday. Stop at the Farchauer Mühlencafe included.

The temperatures have dropped a bit, but luckily the sun ☀️ is shining in the right place. Today we headed to our pretty district town of Ratzeburg (Duchy of Lauenburg) and the Küchensee lake. A truly lovely walk around the lake included a quick stop at the Farchauer Mühlecafe for delicious cake and coffee or tea.

Today, in the late morning, we took a lovely walk around the Großer Küchensee lake in Ratzeburg in glorious spring weather. The route took us along mostly well-paved forest paths close to the lake through the beautiful landscape of the Duchy of Lauenburg.

Once around the kitchen lake with a stop in Ratzeburg in the "Lavastein". lavastein-ratzeburg.de
