Day 1

We can check in from 2pm, and our bikes will arrive at 3pm. 

We’ll take a bike ride through the forest to a small lake near the hotel, for your first taste of the Berlin lakes. This one has a pontoon you can swim out to, to sunbathe on, jump off or dive in from. 

Evening meal: Local German restaurant (optional).

Day 2

A gentle 45 minute cycle ride to two of the best-loved “city lakes”, with easy walking paths all the way around. Here you can run, swim, cycle or even all three if the mood takes you. 

Lunch: Shepherd’s hut for bratwurst and chips, with veggie options available (optional). 

Evening meal: A local German restaurant (optional).

 

Day 3

We drive to Potsdam for a fun in a saunaboat. Jump off the boat into the lake, then jump in to the sauna on the boat, and repeat. There's also a sun deck on top. 

This is followed by a walk through the stunning gardens of Sansoucci Palace to fill up on coffee and cakes, and a potter around beautiful Potsdam. 

Lunch: Cafe or restaurant in Potsdam. 

Evening meal: Local German restaurant (optional). 

 

Day 4

An early start to swim in the 1930s brutalist Olympic Pool or in a local lake. 

Go into town and explore the Mauerpark fleamarket.

Lunch: at one of Mauerpark’s many food stalls. 

This is a suggested itinerary and subject to change. What’s guaranteed is you’ll always be swimming in lovely lakes in and around Berlin.
