Welcome to Zickhusen, a charming village in the north-east of Germany. Situated on the edge of Lake Schwerin and surrounded by rolling hills and forests, Zickhusen offers its visitors an idyllic setting for a relaxing holiday.

Tourist attractions abound here. The best-known highlight is undoubtedly Wiligrad Castle, a magnificent 18th-century baroque palace with an impressive park situated directly on the lakeshore. The St. Marien Church with its distinctive tower and historic organ as well as the Lützow Manor House are also worth a visit.

Cultural highlights are offered especially in the summer months: Concerts at Wiligrad Castle or open-air theatre performances in the romantic courtyard of Lützow Manor House make culture-loving hearts beat faster.

But Zickhusen also has a lot to offer in the way of culinary delights: The regional cuisine is characterised by fresh fish dishes such as smoked eel or pike fillet from Lake Schwerin as well as hearty meat specialities such as game stew or roast goose from the region.

For outdoor fans, there are numerous activities around Lake Schwerin: whether sailing, canoeing or stand-up paddling - water sports enthusiasts will get their money's worth here. But cycling or hiking in the picturesque surroundings are also popular leisure activities. It is especially beautiful in spring when nature awakens and everything shines in delicate shades of green and blue.

And what do you do in Zickhusen when it rains? There's a solution for that too: a visit to Schwerin Castle with its magnificent halls or the Mecklenburg State Theatre offers cultural variety even on grey days.

Summarising, Zickhusen is a destination that is definitely worth discovering. With its idyllic lakeside location and numerous sights and activities for every taste, every stay here is an unforgettable experience.

    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.
