We went for a morning run in the beautiful Großer Garten. It's a perfect spot for outdoor activities, located just near the center of Dresden. The park features well-maintained plantings, magnificent large trees, fountains, flowers, walking paths, and of course, a stunning palace right at its heart. The Dresden Zoo and a miniature railway are also located within this vast park. We ran from the Altstadt around the Palaisteich pond and back, making the morning run a comfortable 5+ kilometers. You could easily do a 10 km run in the park without retracing your steps even once. A truly wonderful park!

It's Dresden's Central Park and the "Green Lung" of the city. An ideal place for walking tours, running, relaxed biking and inline skating, reading, meditation, playing in the grass, having fun with your pet, admiring statues and historical buildings, grabbing a bite or going out to a restaurant, watching birds at the lakeside, going to concerts, taking the small park train operated by children, going to the Zoo or Car Manufacturing museum at the park corners or just sit on a bench and enjoy the lush scenery. A place to go in spring and summer, a quiet place to retreat to in winter.

If you are visiting Dresden and want to get out of the city for a bit and enjoy some fresh air amongst the green green Grand Garden. It is a very big park area with everything from woodland, ponds and gorgeous planted flowerbeds. It is only a stone's throw away from the city centre and, in our opinion, well worth the trek. As well as enjoying all the natural highlights that this area has to offer, you can also put your feet up in one of the beautiful beer gardens which are settled in amongst the trees. I highly recommend a leisurely stroll through these gardens.

Wonderful place ,I go morning walk every morning , it's a bliss going for jog in the mornings !! And you can see lot of migratory birds in summer , for some reasons no access to building in the middle , best part there is two or more beer garden , and you can rent a boat go for boating , and a kids train !! Many more !! If you are planning to shift to Dresden , get a house nearby to the garden , If you are already in Dresden visit regularly , if you are visiting Dresden please visit to the garden don't miss it , best part is access to trams on everyside...
