A narrow, natural singletrack trail runs along the southern shore of Lake Plau, making it ideal for sporty cyclists and mountain bikers. The path leads through dense forests, past small coves, and directly along the water. Rooty sections, tight bends, and occasionally sandy, sometimes muddy sections make the trail varied and, in places, quite challenging. Views of the shimmering lake open up again and again, accompanied by the peaceful rustling of the trees – an intense nature experience on two wheels. 😉👌 The journey is the destination!

The S3 trail is short, challenging and requires a little more than just sitting in the saddle and moving your legs. Not for e-bikers.

Wonderful forest path along the lake :-)

Super great nature trail right along the water, but after about 1 km after the severed tree trunk it is no longer passable due to mud and mire. So turn around and continue above the country road towards Malchow.

Among the most popular trails are the Lenzer Höhen Trail at Lake Plauer, known for its beautiful and fun sections, and the Singletrack on the southern shore of Lake Plau, which offers a challenging, natural singletrack experience through forests and past coves. The Singletrack at Lake Plau also receives high praise for its many beautiful single trails and autumn colors.
