Cycling day trip from Neustrelitz to Rechlin

Set off from the charming town of Neustrelitz, known for its Baroque town center and stunning Schlossgarten, on a scenic 37 km ride to Rechlin. This mostly smooth and well-paved route winds through the peaceful landscape of Mecklenburgische Seenplatte, offering plenty of nature views and tranquil stretches—perfect for a relaxed day in the saddle.

You’ll spend the majority of your ride on dedicated paths and quiet back roads, with just the occasional crossing of a busier section. Along the way, enjoy gently rolling terrain (about 120 meters of climbing overall), which means there are no punishing hills but just enough variety to keep things interesting.

As you approach Rechlin, get ready for more waterside views—this is a town famous for its lakeside setting on the southern tip of Müritz, Germany’s largest inland lake. Once in Rechlin, be sure to check out the Luftfahrttechnisches Museum, showcasing local aviation history, or simply relax by the water. All in all, this route is a wonderful escape for anyone who loves a mix of cultural gems, lakes, and easy cycling!
