Big Plans
When the Jungfernheide Public Park was built, an artificial lake was also created: the Jungfernheide Pond. Countless tons of earth had to be excavated until the hole was finally large enough for the pond. The earth was used to create an island in the middle of the lake.
The original idea was to build a library and a restaurant on the island. But these plans were never realized. From today's perspective, it's beautiful because it allows you to enjoy peace and nature undisturbed in this special place.

Admirable Tree Population
You can reach the island via one of two bridges. From there, you can either follow the main path, which leads from one side of the island to the other, or you can take a small—and worthwhile—detour and take the island trail.
The diversity of trees is particularly striking here. In addition to beech, oak, maple, birch, hornbeam, and black locust, you will also find the water-loving elm and alder trees.
