Hundeauslaufgebiet Kleiner Wannsee

FreeOff-leash permitted

A roughly 50-hectare off-leash dog area stretching along the shores of Kleiner Wannsee, Pohlesee and Stölpchensee. Lakeside promenades offer views and a designated dog swimming spot.

Why it made the list

A quieter, scenic lakeside alternative to the busy Grunewaldsee dog beaches.

Good to know before you go

The area is described as a generously laid-out dog exercise zone with an almost continuous off-leash corridor, a dog swimming spot, and benches; it is far less crowded than better-known areas.

Practical notes

  • Reach it via S-Bahn Wannsee or Griebnitzsee
  • Combine with the Pfaueninsel (Peacock Island) views from Nikolskoe
