    (Translated by Google) It's really nice how green Cologne is! I like the way you can go from park to park almost without a break. (Original) Echt schön wie grün Köln ist! Fast noch besser gefällt mir, wie man von Park zu Park gehen kann, nahezu ohne Unterbrechung.

  • 4/5 Daniel W. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very nice! Highly recommended especially for a long walk with the dog. I wouldn't call it an "insider tip", but it's definitely not overcrowded. A rather clearly used area. (Original) Superschön! Vor allem für einen ausgedehnten Spaziergang mit dem Hund sehr zu empfehlen. Ich würde es nicht "Geheimtipp" nennen, aber es ist definitiv nicht überlaufen. Ein eher übersichtlich genutztes Areal.

  • 5/5 Benedikt B. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The green belt is always worth a visit and shows Cologne's green vein. Here you can go for a walk or do sports to forget everyday stress. It is mostly quiet and a good contrast to the big city flair. (Original) Der Grüngürtel ist immer einen Besuch wert und zeigt Kölns grüne Ader. Hier kann man gut spazieren gehen oder Sport treiben, um den Alltagsstress zu vergessen. Es ist überwiegend ruhig und guter Kontrast zum Großstadtflair.

    A short bike ride out of the city. Perfect for a picnic. You can pretend that the sound of the nearby autobahn is the distant ocean...

    Time in nature is always nice and this park is big and spacious. If one decides to take a walk through the whole park in direction river, it will become more like a forest.

  • 2/5 Michael T. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Sustainable looks different. More waffle than ice cream with a couple of alibi fruits. Then served in a cardboard bag, where the ice spills out below. The compilation of the variants under Corona with mask is unreasonable. Every good Italian ice cream parlor is 1000 times better with a better ecological balance and service. (Original) Nachhaltig sieht anders aus. Mehr Waffel als Eis mit ein Paar alibi Früchte. Dann noch in eine Papp Tüte serviert,wo unten das Eis raus kleckert. Die Zusammenstellung der Varianten unter Corona mit Maske eine Zumutung. Jede gute Italienische Eisdiele ist 1000 Mal besser mit einer besseren Ökobilanz und Service.
