Start in the southeastern district of Neumühle and enjoy the peaceful lakeside walk, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The shoreline offers varied, mostly wooded and sometimes steep sections, especially on the northern shore in the Friedrichsthal Forest.

When the subtle lighting of the bridge structure reflects in the water of Ostdorfer Lake at dusk, its elegant curve comes into its own. In 2021, the new, impressive cycle bridge between the two peninsulas of Krösnitz and Dwang was officially inaugurated. The steel structure has a total length of 92 meters. The bridge completes the 1.2-kilometer-long new cycle path from southern Dwang to the Krösnitz peninsula. "The nature-oriented tourist cycle route runs on municipal land directly along the shores of Lake Ostorf and Lake Faulen. With unobstructed views of both lakes and the city skyline, it offers a strong attraction for cyclists and pedestrians. The bridge connection creates a link for cyclists between the Hamburg-Rügen long-distance cycle route and the Residenzstädte circular route. https://www.schwerin.de/news/cab63f59-1c77-11ec-b47c-1967de695b51/

The Faule See is located in the "Schwerin Lake District" nature reserve. The dammed lake, which is considered weakly polytrophic, covers 50 hectares, and its shoreline is 4,052 meters long. The Faule See is located southwest of Lake Schwerin. The shores are partly wooded and part of a public park, making it ideal for a pleasant bike ride. Some of the near-natural shorelines are legally protected biotopes. Schwerin Palace Park is located on the northwest shore. To the southeast, the lake borders Schwerin Zoo. The lake's name was originally "Fuhler See." It probably comes from the word "Fula[n]," which means "foal" (young horse). Accordingly, the name can be translated as "lake on whose shores foals are kept." This interpretation seems logical, since various field names in this area refer to horse breeding. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fauler_See_(Schwerin)

A very beautiful single trail. You'll have to endure a few nettles in the summer, but you'll be rewarded with some beautiful scenery. It's also worth stopping to admire the ancient beech trees.
