My go to running route during my 1 week stay in Hamburg. I personally find this is the best place to run in Hamburg as it is uninterrupted and the whole lake clockwise/anticlockwise is about 4km. For runners, most part of the runs are on trails but they are use granites etc. Entire stretch of the lake are well maintained and three are many ducks and swans around. Would suggest going early morning as the whole place will be crowded late afternoon onwards.

The Alster Lakes in Hamburg offer a escape within the city, perfect for outdoor activities, trail around lake is ideal for running and walking. For water activities, the lakes provide opportunities for kayaking and paddling, and rentals are available. In my experience, the Alster Lakes stand out as the best nature spot near Hamburg, offering a blend of scenic beauty and recreational options. I really liked it.

The Alster Lakes area is absolutely dreamy. It's a great spot to watch the sail boats, the ducks, the people out for a stroll or a run. I sat on one of the benches for a bit and then walked into the city from there. What a treat for people living or visiting that area of the city. I enjoyed it so much that I booked a boat tour of both the Inner and Outer Lakes today.

The greatest natural resource in Hamburg! The 4.5 mile walk around the lake is as lovely as any of the many city lakes I have visited. Clearly a host of recreational and dining opportunities; however, the residential architecture surrounding the lake is also quite spectacular. Most impressive is the protective shoreline habitats created for waterfoul; particularly the famous lake swans! Well...
