Strandbad Jungfernheide

Jungfernheide lido in green Charlottenburg North entices visitors with its fine sandy beach, relaxed sunbathing lawns, and a diverse range of water sports activities right in the Volkspark. Whether you're wakeboarding, stand-up paddling, or simply sunbathing – here you'll find the perfect cool-down on hot days in one of Berlin's most beautiful lidos.

What’s the atmosphere and facilities like on site?

If you’re looking for a break from everyday life, Strandbad Jungfernheide is the perfect place, as this location promises a real holiday feeling in western Berlin. The well-maintained, fine sandy beach and expansive sunbathing lawns offer ample space to spread out your towel and get comfortable. The layout is particularly pleasant: while families with children appreciate the shallow entry into the water and the slide, ambitious swimmers can do their laps in the separate 50-meter area. Furthermore, a long bathing jetty leads directly into Jungfernheide Lake, making it easier to enter the cool water.

Comfort is also a top priority away from the water. You can rent sun loungers and umbrellas on-site if you don’t want to lie on the grass. The dense trees of the surrounding Volkspark also provide natural shaded areas, which is a big advantage, especially on very hot summer days.

What does the lido offer for active people and connoisseurs?

For those who don’t just want to laze around, Strandbad Jungfernheide offers a wide range of sports. If you prefer something a bit calmer, you can rent a SUP board and explore the lake paddling from the water. You can also engage in sports on land, for example, on the beach volleyball court, where exciting matches are often played.

After sports or sunbathing, hunger usually strikes. The “Strandhaus” (Beach House) provides a remedy here. The café with its beautiful terrace offers a great view over the lake and supplies you with everything you need: from coffee and cake to snacks, cool drinks, and cocktails. Since the Strandhaus is also accessible independently of the bathing area, you often meet walkers from the park here. Remember that on busy days, online tickets guarantee admission, saving you unnecessary waiting times at the ticket office.
