There are currently several construction sites, so it's not possible to drive straight through. Sundays are busy, even when the weather is nice, so it's best to avoid them.

In 2014, the Steglitz city park with its hundred-year history received particular attention. The approximately 17 hectare site was once a swampy lowland with old trees, which was transformed into a landscape park by garden director Fritz Zahn and horticultural inspector Rudolf Korte. The Steglitz city park has been classified as a garden monument since 1995. Today the park has an old tree population that covers significant areas of the area.

Nice quiet place for a break or a picnic on the lawn. With a bit of luck you can get a place higher up with a good view.

The avenue stretches for several kilometers and is lined with numerous cherry trees that are in full bloom and offer a colorful spectacle. It is a popular place for walks, picnics and photo shoots. The area around Lichterfelde South is also very attractive for cyclists. There are many green areas and parks that invite you to relax and enjoy nature. There are also many opportunities to explore the area by bike. The atmosphere on the Cherry Allee is relaxed and cheerful. There is a positive mood and you can feel the sense of community and joy when you become part of the Hanami festival.

Nevertheless, it is definitely worth enjoying this special experience - whether it is sunny or cloudy. If you are lucky, you can even find a quiet corner for yourself and enjoy the beauty of the cherry blossom to the fullest.
