Description
Village Outdoor – Along the Lakes in Grunewald
with Harms Wulf and Thomas Fischer
Our hike, adapted for the heat, starts at the Grunewald S-Bahn station and follows the Hundekehle See to Grunewaldsee. There, we’ll have the chance to stop for a break at a café or a beer garden. On easy-to-walk trails, the route continues through the forest along the Langes Luch—whose bodies of water provide additional cooling—to the Krumme Lanke. There, you’ll have the chance to cool off in the water.
*We’ll start the hike earlier than usual to avoid the midday heat.
What’s Village Outdoor?
Village outdoor Events are monthly meetups for the we are village community and their friends to enjoy outdoor activities in and around Berlin.
Activities include forest hikes, bike tours, swimming in lakes, sightseeing, and kayaking. Each month features a free and easy walk or hike in Berlin or its surrounding areas, accessible by public transport.
Harms Wulf Harms already knows Berlin from the times of division. Since then, he has explored the urban and natural spaces of Berlin and its surroundings both professionally and privately.
For Thomas Fischer outdoor activities and movement through nature are important to connect with his self and the world around him. Therefore, he supports outdoor activities at Village and brings 20 years of experience in exploring Berlin and Brandenburg to the programme.
As a health professional he is passionate about the interplay between mind, body and social connections. He believes that movement, curiosity and constant development are at the core of every human’s journey through life.
