The Landwehrkanal is one of Berlin's most beloved waterways, a tree lined canal winding through Kreuzberg, Neukoelln and Tiergarten. On warm days the banks of the Landwehrkanal fill with people picnicking, drinking and watching the boats go by. This overview gathers Berlin locations along its banks.
The canal passes markets, bridges and beer gardens, with the famous Turkish market on the Maybachufer among its highlights. Willows lean over the water, houseboats moor along the edges, and paths invite long walks and bike rides.
