Unfortunately, I had to shorten the lap a bit due to the forecast heavy thunderstorms and rain front.

The lakes and nature are worth seeing, but the bike paths for touring cyclists are unfortunately partly unacceptable. Instead of bursting, cracked, loose tar covering, then prefer a natural, normal field or hiking trail.

Interesting route over relatively unknown lakes! But the bike paths with some coarse gravel is more for MTB's! Komoot should take this into account when planning a route!
