The Tegel Forest is one of Berlin's great green escapes, a sprawling woodland in the northwest beside the Tegeler See. Laced with trails and dotted with lakes, the Tegel Forest offers walking, cycling and swimming close to the city. This overview gathers Berlin locations around the woods.
Paths wind through pine and oak past the lakeshore and quiet clearings, popular with walkers, runners and cyclists, while the Tegeler See adds beaches and boat hire. Beer gardens and cafes mark the way, and the forest feels far removed from the city yet sits within its limits. It is a favourite for a green day out.
