Trip ideas for Berlin in June 2025¶
Places to have a look at¶
-
Place to stay on a short trip: OSTEL hostel, a DDR stile hostel.
-
Badeschiff swimming pool in the river. Pre-booking necessary.
-
Spreepark, but only accessible via guided tours. But now under reconstruction, so there is not much left of the old part and now guided tours are more of the construction site.
-
Berlin Weinerei Wine bar
-
Stadtbad Neuköln: Old-looking swimming pool with FKK hours according to a YouTube video, but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore.
-
Teufelsberg. Entrance 12 EURO
-
Berliner Unterwelten e.V. organises underground tours in Berlin
-
Freiluftkino Kruzberg at the Kunstquartier Bethanien
-
ReichsBahnAusbesserungsWerk (R.A.W.): Grafitti scene and alternative scene. Just some nice sceneray, though guided tours are possible.
-
Bus 100 offers interesting views.
-
To eat: Bürgermeister (street food) at the Oberbaumbrücke linking Friedichshain and Kreuzberg. (But there are more locations)
-
Bernburger Straße grafitti: Already processed and I think done also
-
Uraban Nation museum of contemporary art, free! (Already in other list)
Apps used¶
-
Mo.pla for the Deutschlandticket
-
Komoot anbd Guru Maps for navigation
-
Hardly used the BVG apps
Actual agenda¶

- Trip to Berlin, 10 minutes or so delay in Berlin

- Some drinks and early lunch (late breakfast) near the Dom
- ICE 559 at 12:35 to Berlin, arrival scheduled at 17:49 but ten minutes or so late
- To the hotel with the S-bahn and U-bahn. In retrospect, leaving at Spandau and taking S3 from there would have been a good option also.
