Directions
Several green oases can be discovered in Frankfurt (Oder). Ziegenwerder offers a special island of relaxation. Located in the middle of the Oder, you can reach the unspoiled island via a wooden suspension bridge, which, in addition to rich flora, is also home to lizards and other native animals. The island is particularly popular in summer and has a popular beer garden.
On the western outskirts of Frankfurt (Oder) near the Rosengarten district, a wildlife park was built between 1994 and 2000 on a former shooting range. The adventure playground and a petting zoo particularly attract young visitors and convey a special closeness to local animals.
The “little Baltic Sea” is right outside the city gates. This is what Lake Helene is popularly called. The open-cast lignite mine "Grube Helene", which was flooded after 1958, is the second deepest lake in Brandenburg at over 57 m. Its excellent water quality makes it particularly popular with divers. With an area of 220 hectares, it offers a variety of beaches and water sports such as surfing and pedal boating. It is Frankfurt's absolute favorite lake, not least because of its aqua park for bathers.
If you prefer to travel by boat instead of a bicycle, you can also charter a boat at the Winterhafen Marina without a license and experience the Oder from the water.
