Habermannsee is featured in our Cee Cee No.2 Book, which is available for purchase here.
Every year, there’s hype over Berlin’s best new secret lake to cool down in. Instead of following the crowds, I usually browse maps online and search for the “blue spots” that surround the city by the hundreds. However, if I want to go to a lake that’s not too far and easily reachable by tram or bike, I always end up at the perfect place for me: Habermannsee. The shore is dotted with plenty of great sunbathing areas, grassy spots for the grown-ups, and sandy beaches with a good stretch of shallow water for the little ones. When the weather is hot and the sun is shining, don’t waste time searching for a shoreside haven — just take your bike to Habermannsee. (Text: Sven Hausherr / Photos: Daniel Farò)
