Karower Teiche

The Karow ponds in the Pankow district are part of the nature park Barnim. Swimming is not allowed here. From the railway station Berlin-Karow,it is only 20 minutes’ walk to the Karowponds, which are a favorite excursion destination,especially on weekends.Even though, the largest part of the nature park is inaccessible and is protected with fences. The accessible path leads between the northern and southern ponds.Several viewing platforms allow the observation of birds and amphibians, without disturbing the animals.Over 330 species of wild plants have been already documented in the area.
