Grunewald

Forest Berlin, Berlin, Germany

What to expect

Grunewald is a locality in the western part of Berlin, known for its large forest area, which is a popular destination for walkers and cyclists. The forest is bounded by the Havel to the west and offers several lakes, including the Grunewaldsee, Krumme Lanke, and Schlachtensee. Visitors can enjoy a walk in the forest, climb the Grunewaldturm for a wonderful view, or explore the Teufelsberg, a mountain of rubble with a dilapidated American listening station on top. The Grunewald Hunting Lodge, a Renaissance hunting lodge, is also worth a visit. The area is suitable for families, with opportunities for outdoor activities and exploration
