Reasons to go
Full description
Volkspark Friedrichshain dates back to 1848, making it Berlin's oldest public park, and its artificial hill known as Mont Klamott was later built from rubble cleared after the Second World War. Wooded paths, a beloved fairy-tale fountain, and casual grill spots give it a lived-in, neighborhood feel rather than a manicured showpiece, and its rating of 4.6 across more than 16,000 reviews reflects genuine local affection.
It works equally well for a quiet coffee on the hill or an active afternoon of walking and cycling.

Reviews
A really nice park to walk through, the mountain is very pretty and a great place to sit with a coffee. There is a great Grill in the park which sells bratwurst and other great food options that you can eat while relaxing in the park.
