[Round from U-Alt Tegel]

(Tour from Friday, April 29th)

Beautiful and varied circular hike around Lake Tegel in glorious sunshine - highly recommended! Small crossing with the ferry and holiday feeling on the beach and in Alt-Tegel included. :-)

For me it was actually the first time that I completely circled the lake - why actually...?

I've done this route several times and, apart from the small section in the residential area in Spandau, it's a really nice tour with a few places by the water where you can take a short break.
