There's a playground for kids, barbeque areas and even a deer sanctuary. Waldcafe Corell is a really good place to stop off and get a snack too. I'm lucky enough to live 5 mins walk away from this place and I'm going to make sure I take advantage of it more in the future.

Not much traffic we met 5 people on a sunny August Monday afternoon, but be aware of the sometimes speeding cyclists ;-) !! You can walk around the lake and the "Moor" easily in an hour, or spent much more if you follow each and every trail. Especially if you observe the cute little houses, with their accurate design and trimmed lawn (this is Germany ;-) and of course some garden gnomes of the "Kleingartenverein" parcels around the Moor.

Although it feels a bit as if you jumped on a rocket and got to the future when you get up here. The park is so close to Landungsbrücken, yet so different. But still with the same pretty view of harbor, cranes and ships. It isn't really much more than a park, but the view makes it worth it. The lack of tourists as well and let's just face it: the sort-of strange details like hammocks and palm trees that look like they've been build out of Lego, too. Awesome place to just sit and talk with a friend or two, three, four, while enjoying Harbor Hamburg around you.

Cool place to lie about in the sun on a nice day, and there's often live music in from of the Pudel club, right next to the park.

Although it's super-close to the Schanze and St Pauli it's officially in Altona. One other oddity is that it's actually a graveyard. The guy cycling his espresso cart around is always there, and yes he always seems stoned - too much caffeine?

Walking through the areas of town considered by one such northerner to be worthy, I stumbled across Wohlerspark, and I was smitten immediately. There's nothing grandiose about the park; it's not big, has neither the grandeur of Planten un Blomen nor the size of the Stadtpark, lacks both lake and river frontage, and yet there's something sublime about this spot. An excellent place to start the day, or end an evening.
