Cherry blossoms in Berlin
Bike Touring Collection by komoot
After the winter is over, Berlin shows itself from it's the best side again. And spring becomes especially beautiful when the cherry blossoms are blooming. In Japan, the whole country is celebrating “Hanami”, once the blossoms come out. It's the cherry blossom festival. Around Berlin, there are several places where you can also enjoy the delicate white and pink flowers. Pack a picnic and a blanket and take your bike out for a ride to catch them before it's too late!

Highlights
Japanische Kirschallee am Mauerweg bei Lichterfelde-Süd
Bike Touring Highlight (Segment)
From the end of April to the beginning of May, a special gift from the Japanese to the reunified Germany blooms here. Hundreds of ornamental cherries transform the former death strip of the Berlin Wall into a sea of pink flowers.

Kirschblütenweg Bornholmer Straße
Bike Touring Highlight (Segment)
Kirschbaumallee is a section of the Berlin Wall Trail near the former Bornholmer Strasse border crossing. Out of joy at the fall of the Berlin Wall and the reunification of Germany, Japanese citizens donated these cherry trees in a generous fundraising campaign, which were planted in various places in and around Berlin. There are now over 10,000.

Kirschblüten im Stadtpark Steglitz

Very nice city park in Steglitz, not too big, not too small and above all: not crowded (even in good weather). Many playgrounds for different age groups - ideal for families with small / small children.

Kirschblüten am Hohenzollernplatz
Bike Touring Highlight
Every year, the meadows on Hohenzollernplatz are enchanted. The branches of the trees bend under an intoxicating, pinkish-pink blossom, and even the locals pause for a moment in their bustle and are happy.
