November 1, 2025,Runde | Park Babelsberg - Freundschaftsinsel - Neuer Garten - Glienicker Brücke

An autumn hike in the opposite direction to my 100th Komoot tour, with a worthwhile stop at the Potsdam Dairy.

This time, the hike started in Babelsberg Park, led through Nuthe Park and across Friendship Island to the New Garden. It's fascinating how the same paths feel completely different in reverse – new perspectives, new vistas, new lighting.

A very entertaining and beautiful tour of the Babelsberg Palace Park and surroundings. The weather was beautiful and the sun was beating down on the water. The only drawback was that not a single café was open yet ;)

This loop is highly recommended. You first pass the historic Cecilienhof Palace and the surrounding park. On the way back, you'll see Babelsberg Palace with its park and various outbuildings.

August 24, 2025,Runde | Glienicker Brücke - Neuer Garten - Freundschaftsinsel - Park Babelsberg

My 100th komoot tour was themed around: Prussia's Splendor and Saxony's Glory.

For a change, today's tour wasn't about nature, but rather civilization. A wonderful tour between the splendor of past centuries and the historical legacy of our distant past.

March 15, 2025,Schloss Babelsberg & Heiliger See

A wonderful tour! The loop could have easily been extended. There would certainly have been some more interesting spots along the way, but since I was with a group and most people wanted to walk right by the water, I went along with it 🤣

April 15, 2023,Runde durch Potsdam ab Holländischem Viertel

The round today was really great and, if you have the time, really recommended when visiting Berlin: From the Dutch Quarter we went through the New Garden to the Cecilienhof, Glienicke Bridge to the Babelsberg Palace. Many information boards have provided background knowledge about the individual places.

June 11, 2022,Potsdam Park Tour - Family Hike

Family hike through Potsdam with a 3 year old (child carrier). Main points are: Hauptbahnhof - Neuer Garten - Babelsberg Park. It's a city/park hike with beautiful architecture and views. We didn't do restaurant breaks this time but there were a couple of good options along the way, for example Meierei brewery or Wartmanns Café.
