Geographically, Leezen is close to Hamburg and Lübeck, surrounded by green meadows and fields. The special feature of this place is its idyllic location between the two lakes Pinnsee and Schmalsee - perfect for nature lovers!

Touristically relevant are above all the historical buildings such as Leezen Castle or the 13th century church. Cultural highlights are offered with regular concerts or exhibitions in the local cultural centre.

Leezen also has a lot to offer in terms of cuisine: Be sure to try the regional fishing on the lakeshore or enjoy traditional North German cuisine in one of the cosy restaurants.

For outdoor activities, the summer is particularly suitable: Swimming, fishing or boating on the lakes as well as hiking or cycling through the picturesque landscape are popular here. In winter, you can go ice skating on the frozen lake when the temperatures are frosty.

If it ever rains, it is worth visiting the local history museum with interesting insights into the history of the village and surrounding area.

But the most beautiful time is at sunset on the shore of a lake - here you can relax, let your mind wander and just enjoy.

This travel guide clearly shows: Even if not everyone would immediately travel to Leezen, there are still some reasons to do so!

    Kaum Steigungen, auch für ungeübte Radler mit günstigen Leihrädern zu bestreiten. Oftmals sind die Wege leider etwas weit weg vom See, insbesondere durch das Ramper Moor ist es sehr eintönig. Bei Döpe kann es matschig werden, hier nutzt man ungeteerte Waldwege. Empfehlung: Von der Seewarte nach Rampe hinunterfahren und nicht wie hier vorgeschlagen von Rampe aus hinauf. Neben dem Fischimbiss Prignitz sei auch das Gartencafe Wiligrad beim gleichnamigen Schloss wärmstens empfohlen! Badehose nicht vergessen! Es gibt zahlreiche schöne Badestellen am Ufer!

    Sehr schöne Tour, Highlights sind Schloß Wiligrad und die vielen Streckenabschnitte am See mit hübschen Badestellen. Der für Fahrräder geeignete Seezugang in Wiligrad ist nicht leicht zu finden, ggfs. fragen. Der Abschnitt am westlichen Seeufer ist partiell ziemlich rauh zu fahren, eher ein Wanderpfad.

    Sehr schön, jedoch ist der Uferweg zwischen Willigrad und Bad Kleinen nicht befahrbar, an mehreren Stellen liegen große Baumstämme im Weg.
