    Tips

    Once a fishing island, later part of Deutsche Werft AG, and today a popular destination for the Finkenwerder population, this is how the Gorch Fock Park on the south bank of the Elbe can be described in a few words. It was named after the local poet Johann Kinau, who was born in Finkenwerder in 1880 and published under the pseudonyms Gorch Fock, Jakob Holst and Giorgio Focco. As one of the few green spaces in Hamburg on the south bank of the Elbe, the Gorch Fock Park offers an unusual view of the Hanseatic city. The green ribbon of Schröders Elbpark, Hindenburgpark, Jenischpark, Hirschpark and Baurs Park can be seen along its entire length. And while you can rarely catch a glimpse of one of the magnificent villas on the north bank of the Elbe from the
    Elbchaussee because they are shielded by huge trees or massive gates, they can be wonderfully viewed from the Gorch Fock Park.


    In addition to the beautiful views, the Gorch Fock Park also offers a circular path

    with plenty of seating, sports fields and probably one of the most beautiful outdoor pools in Hamburg. While a rather quiet spot awaits visitors here in the park,

    the adjacent Rüsch peninsula offers the possibility of more active uses.

      Wonderful view of the Elbe with the ships and on the other side of the Elbe with beautiful houses.

        Very suitable place to watch ships entering and leaving the port of Hamburg. Especially for the Hamburg port birthday, but also otherwise. Here you are close to the big pots.

          Here is a memorial stone for Gorch Fock.

            Great if, with a bit of luck, you get a view of the big cruise ships from the benches. The Queen Elisabeth II eclipses the sun 🌞

              From here you have a perfect view of the Elbe.
