1. Tiergarten

But our walking tour starts out with Berlin’s most famous park, Tiergarden. Tiergarten is a sprawling urban park in the heart of the city, and by extension the urban chaos. Feel free to go on a leisurely stroll along winding paths, rent a bike, take a relaxing picnic or what have you? You don’t want to miss the opportunity to see the famous Victory Column and take in fantastic city views.

2. Tempelhofer Feld

After Tempelhofer Feld, or Tempelhof Field, a magical park set on ruins of a former airport. Being so expansive it is ideal for cycling, rollerblading and even kite flying. Walk on the old runways, or picnic on the grassy fields. Locals and tourists alike love Tempelhofer Feld for being a one of a kind experience.

3. Treptower Park

Treptower Park is a nice little hidden gem surrounding the river Spree. The impressive Soviet War Memorial stands here at this park, which remembers the soldiers who died during World War II. Stroll out for a relaxing walk by the river, rent a paddleboat or simply sit and soak up the environment. Treptower Park should not be missed, and is a place of tranquility.

4. Grunewald Forest

Make your way out of the city and plunge into the Grunewald Forest. This is a great forest for nature lovers, lots of hiking trails, beautiful lakes and even a hunting lodge. While there you’d also do well to go visit Teufelsberg, an abandoned Cold War spy station built as a manmade hill with great views across the city. Grunewald Forest is a real outdoor paradise.

5. Volkspark Friedrichshain

Volkspark Friedrichshain, one of Berlin’s oldest parks, is popular with local people for chilling out. The calm green oasis offers lawns, boating lake and even a small hill with a view of sunset. While you’re there don’t forget to check out the Märchenbrunnen which is a fountain with fairy tale statues that will make you feel like your brushing off that childhood memory.

6. Schlosspark Charlottenburg

Finally we have Schlosspark Charlottenburg, a park surrounding the immaculate Charlottenburg Palace. Gone for a stroll along beautiful mancured gardens, enchanted the baroque architecture of the palace, or just relax on the shore of the lake. This park is a well preserved reminder of rich Berlin history and is one of the farthest places away from the city buzz.
