Somehow, I don't understand such highlights. This HL is supposed to describe the entire circuit around Schwerin's Outer Lake? For example, from Seehof to Seehof? And what's along the way for 35 km? There are tons of HLs. Komoot rule... Don't set tours as HLs. By the way, on the other side of the Outer Lake... Loose, powdered sand without end...almost only accessible by mountain bike.

The town owes its name "Bad" to the former hydrotherapy facility in 1915. Due to the existing electrification and its location on Lake Schwerin, the Bad Kleinen Mill Works were established in 1916. Bad Kleinen looks back on a varied history. https://www.mein-bad-kleinen.de/historisches-bad-kleinen/#:~:text=Der%20damaligen%20Wasserheilanstalt%20verdankt%20der,auf%20eine%20avielfalte%20Geschichte%20zur%C3%BCck.
