Gatehouse, Babelsberg Park

Highlight • Castle

In the northeast of the city of Potsdam, adjacent to the Deep Sea of the Havel, lies the 124-acre Park Babelsberg. Commissioned by Prince Wilhelm, later Emperor Wilhelm I and his wife Augusta, the garden artists Peter Joseph Lenné and, after him, Prince Hermann von Pückler-Muskau designed the hilly terrain sloping down to the lake as a park landscape.

Babelsberg Park

Highlight • Rest Area

In 1902, a pedestrian bridge was built over the Teltow Canal. This bridge was given to the Emperor Wilhelm II as a compensation for the land needed for canal construction, which he had ceded. It was considered the most beautiful bridge over the entire Teltow Canal.

The bridge was destroyed at the end of World War II, but quickly rebuilt. With the construction of the border fortifications in connection with the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961, the parking bridge became the border checkpoint and Klein Glienicke the restricted area.

With the fall of the Berlin Wall - with Klein Glienicke - the bridge was also reopened for traffic. Since the bridge is very narrow, the construction of a traffic light system was necessary in order to realize for the individual Verklehr.

Hiking and cycling trail in Babelsberg Park

Highlight • Trail

Hiking and cycling trail in Babelsberg Park – a classic Komoot highlight: a perfectly ordinary path, clearly marked as a green line on the map anyway. Nevertheless, it's been marked and liked as a red dot because… well, Pioneer points can be collected everywhere. May the park overflow with red dots!

Mauerweg Bridge at Glienicker Lake — Babelsberg

Highlight • Bridge

Fortunately, the wall is now gone. Although some clues can still be seen, it is no longer possible to imagine the real wall.

Gravel path along the Griebnitzsee

Highlight • Trail

As of March 2024, the riverside path between Klein Glienicke and Wannsee is closed due to forestry work and the risk of falling branches.
There were no restrictions on jogging on the path itself (I heard...)

View of Griebnitzsee and the lakeside villa

Highlight • Viewpoint

Since the work has been completed, the route is finally open again. Since beavers are obviously gnawing on the trees along the banks, this will unfortunately not be the last long closure.
