The Seven Lakes route delivers what its name promises: 7 lakes and a beautiful landscape.
On the approximately 50-kilometer-long circular route, cyclists can explore the cultural landscape of the municipality of Schiffdorf. The observation towers in Sellstedt and Bramel invite you to linger. There, nature enthusiasts can experience a great diversity of species, especially in the wetlands at Polder Bramel and Polder Glies as well as at the lakes and waters passed along the route.
