Lake

58 Locations

A lake is never far away in Berlin, a city ringed by dozens of them, from the Wannsee to the Müggelsee. In summer, a lake means swimming, sunbathing, boating and lakeside beer gardens, all reachable by train or bike from the centre.

This overview gathers Berlin locations around a lake, from big bathing lakes with lidos to quiet forest waters. Some focus on swimming and beaches, others on boat hire, walking trails and lakeside restaurants.
