The view of the lake and the surrounding landscape is simply stunning, perfect for letting your gaze wander far out over the water. A truly beautiful spot. Just stop for a moment and take in the beautiful perspectives. An ideal spot for photos and a short rest. It's worth it!

The view of Lake Plauer See near Lenz is wide and open – a perfect place to enjoy the expanse of the water. From here, you can see across the gently curved bay to the opposite, wooded shores. The shore near Lenz is slightly elevated, so the lake spreads out like a tranquil mirror, often rippled by gentle waves or small boats. On a clear day, the view stretches far across the lake, while the light constantly changes and reflects on the water's surface. Especially in the morning or evening, the scenery is particularly atmospheric – ideal for a photo, a rest, or simply a moment to pause.

This idyllic vantage point offers breathtaking views over the elongated lake, part of an impressive chain of lakes stretching from Lake Müritz to Lake Plau. The town of Malchow, a picturesque island town and climatic health resort, can be seen from this vantage point. Nestled in the beautiful natural surroundings, the town offers a charming view. A tour with the Müritz White Fleet to Malchow is an excellent way to start the day. The swing bridge in Malchow is a spectacular sight not to be missed. The subsequent cycle ride back to Waren via Göhren and Lake Fleesensee is a delight for every cyclist, with picturesque landscapes and charming paths. A special experience is taking a break at the Seewirtschaft on the beach and continuing the journey via Klink to Waren. This part of the route is particularly beautiful and offers many opportunities to linger and enjoy the view. The path to the viewpoint can be a bit difficult in places, with nettles and other natural obstacles, but the effort is worth it for the spectacular view you can enjoy at the end.
