The Kompass Wandelkaart 865 Mecklenburgische Seenplatte is a detailed topographic map designed for outdoor enthusiasts exploring the Mecklenburg Lake District. It serves as a reliable guide for both hikers and cyclists planning routes through this scenic region of northeastern Germany.
Printed in German at a 1:60 000 scale, this map strikes a balance between regional overview and local detail, making it easier to trace minor paths alongside main roads and waterways. Its compact size (20 x 12 x 1.5 cm) slips into a backpack pocket without weighing you down, and the clear layout helps you stay oriented whether you’re cycling between villages or following lakeside trails.
A 1:60 000 scale means that 1 cm on the map corresponds to 600 m on the ground, so you can quickly estimate distances and plan daily stages. This level of detail highlights elevation changes, trail junctions and points of interest, helping you adjust your pace and rest stops with confidence.
