We call it the Lake Love Tour! It goes 26 kilometres once around the Scharmützelsee. Even 100 years ago, celebrities came to the elegant Bad Saarow to relax in the fresh lake air. And when a cycle tour around Lake Scharmützelsee was still out of the question, Theodor Fontane declared it to be the ‘Märkisches Meer’!

Route Wendisch Rietz, Diensdorf-Radlow, Bad Saarow

Route description

There is something for everyone on this route. The tour alternates between small sandy beaches, jetties and quiet bathing spots, ideal for a dip in the cool water in summer.

The tour starts in Bad Saarow and runs around Lake Scharmützelsee, which Theodor Fontane unceremoniously declared to be the ‘Märkisches Meer’. Everywhere you go, you will come across chic villas, some with extravagant architecture and a wealth of history. 

The halfway point is in Wendisch Rietz. You simply can't drive past the village at the southern tip of the lake. The lighthouse in the Scharmützelsee holiday park points the way and the yachts and sailing boats line the lock in summer.

If you're more of a romantic type, set off a little later and don't miss the sunset over Lake Scharmützelsee. At the jetty in Diensdorf-Radlow or in Cecilienpark in Bad Saarow, the spectacle of the sun setting over the lake is particularly impressive.

If you undertake the tour in summer, you should definitely pack your swimming gear in your rucksack. There is more than one dreamy bathing spot along the route - just look out for the ‘bathing spot’ signs.

And for good measure, there are two lakes on top: if you'd like to soak up even more lake love, you can cycle around the Großer Storkower See and the Großer Glubigsee.

What could be nicer than taking a short trip to your favourite lake and feeling the wind in your hair?
