Berlin Beyond the Bustle: Discovering Green Oases
Berlin is famous for its contrasts: vibrant, diverse, but also surprisingly calm and, above all, green. Did you know that almost 40% of the capital consists of green and water spaces? Experience Berlin at its most idyllic side —far from the usual tourist hotspots!
Starting at the Kulturbrauerei in Berlin, we wind our way away from traffic through the Gesundbrunnen district and Volkspark Humboldthain, mostly following the course of the Panke, Berlin’s third-longest river and the namesake of the Pankow district. Along our route, we’ll discover Bürgerpark Pankow, the historic Schönhausen Palace, and the Schönholzer Heide—green oases rich in history and perfect for a little escape right in the city.
Rediscover Berlin: Living and Experiencing Sustainability
We’ll take you on a journey to discover how Berlin is shaping its green future. Beyond fascinating historical insights and amazing stories, we’ll dive into exciting topics like sustainable urban development and creative reuse that define our stops:
- Renaturating the Panke: Watch as an urban river transforms into a thriving ecosystem for plants, animals, and people.
- Urban Mobility: Explore how bike lanes, shared mobility, and car-free zones are making Berlin a more livable, eco-friendly city.
- Gentrification and Open Spaces: See how neighborhoods like Prenzlauer Berg, Gesundbrunnen, and Pankow are balancing the demands of housing, culture, and nature amidst rapid change.
- Cultural Hotspots: Old industrial buildings reimagined as studios, concert venues, and gathering spaces—symbols of Berlin’s vibrant urban transformation.
- Street Art and Urban Creativity: From bold graffiti to stunning installations—witness how Berlin’s streets have become living, breathing galleries.

All Berlin on Bike public bike tours start at the Kulturbrauerei (means “Culture Brewery”) in the Prenzlauer Berg district. The brewery grounds have several entrances, the best way to get to us is through the archway at Knaackstraße 97. From the underground station Eberswalder Straße (underground line 2, three stops north of Alexanderplatz) it’s a 200-metre walk.
For private tours with your own bikes, the start can be arranged individually. Delivery of our bikes for your private bike tour is also possible for an additional charge – but this is usually only worthwhile for larger groups.

Berlin on Bike offers daily public bike tours in English, Dutch and German. You can choose from several themed bike routes in our program and usually register at short notice. The average group size is 8 to 12 people, with a maximum of 15 guests. The bicycle tours take place when a minimum of 4 participants registers.
We also offer private bicycle tours: with these your family, friends or colleagues will enjoy the exclusive attention of one of our bike guides. Private tours can be tailored to suit individual needs, including as many breaks as you might wish for, and bespoke catering stops at places requested, as well as detours to particular sites you might be interested in seeing.
In addition to our “main languages” English, Dutch and German, private tours can also be booked in French, Spanish or Swedish.
For the private bike tours, we ask for a little more advance notice when booking, to give us time to find the right guide for your group. However, you may also be lucky with a request at short notice, e.g. the day before.
