Let me regale you with the tale of my family's adventure to the outdoor oasis known as "Kiebitzberger outdoor pool" in Berlin. Prepare yourselves for a mix of refreshing dips, shady spots, and a touch of credit card confusion. Welcome to a place where cold waters and warm laughs await! First, let's talk about the price. A reasonable 22 euros for a family of six? That's a deal worth splashing out on! So, armed with towels, sunscreen, and a hefty dose of enthusiasm, we dove headfirst into our aquatic escapade. Upon arrival, we were greeted by vast expanses of greens and trees, offering welcome shade to those seeking a respite from the scorching sun. It was as if nature herself had provided a cozy, leafy blanket for us to recline upon. Picnicking under the protective canopy, we reveled in the company of chirping birds and the rustling of leaves, feeling like true outdoor adventurers. Now, let's address the elephant in the pool—quite literally, the temperature of the water. If you seek an invigorating and, shall we say, "Titanic-esque" experience, then this is the place for you! The was so refreshingly cold that it could have easily turned a sunbather into an Olympic swimmer, complete with dramatic shivers and gasps that would rival Leonardo DiCaprio's finest acting moments. But fear not! This icy plunge only added to the thrill and laughter of our aquatic escapades, resulting in countless tales of brave conquests and hilarious poolside dances. But let us not forget the minor hiccup on our journey—a place that doesn't accept major credit cards (only EC). Clearly, Kiebitzberger wants to keep us on our toes, not just in the but also in the realm of payment methods. A gentle reminder to pack those coins and spare a thought for the ancient relics known as cash, as plastic cards won't make the cut here. But hey, it's a small price to pay for the delightful adventures that await within those icy waters. So, if you're seeking a family-friendly oasis with vast greens, shady trees, and waters that will make your teeth chatter, Kiebitzberger is the place to be. Embrace the cold, soak up the laughter, and revel in the quirky quirks that make this a truly unique experience. Just remember to bring your coins, a sense of adventure, and perhaps a few warm blankets to wrap yourself in after your icy aquatic endeavors. Dive in, and let the laughs begin! Nice facilities. Clean and spacious. Suitable for kids. As usual, a lot of people but luckily the place itself is quite big. If come close to the close time (it closes at 19), you will find place to swim as well as reduced price (only on working days!). The was clean enough and there was no line for the early riser tariff - 7 to 9AM. However, there was only one lane separated - for fast swimmers, and as I am not very fast, I didn't work up the courage to get in it. The rest of the big swimming had no segregated lanes, so it was a bit of a mess. I think people mainly tried to keep to the lines drawn on the bottom, but it didn't always work out, and also not everyone did it. I was constantly in someone's way, or someone in mine, until I shifted to the far end, which was more sparsely populated. I think it would be much better to just have lanes. Another downside is that non-swimmers was closed (functional, but fenced off). IDK why and I think families with kids would also love to use early morning slots. The lockers need a euro. The changing rooms aren't numerous but were enough. I give it 4 stars for the and facilities, but only 3 for organization. After only 1 h 30 min we entered, they announced they would close the whole because of weather conditions. There was a cloud indeed but 0 rain or storm as they claimed. Maybe the staff wanted to go home earlier today? Nice place. But it all store there in Stone Age. There are possibilities to pay by ec card or cash Nice place for everyone. No matter how old you are. One thing which I really like is that they have plenty of sitting area (ground). It is out of Berlin but Easy to get it with Buses, very nice place you got there one big deep for swimming and diving and big one for kids and little one for babies, there is also big garden to make Tant and relax under the Trees, they have also small Imbiss if you hungry you can buy Fries with Wurst or without, ice cream and drinks. I tottaly recommend it. Nice place! Good personal and relatively empty. Different activitys and the is clean and a good temperature. They also have a playground, baseball and beach volleyball place. Would definitely recommend! I have seen there are a number of negative reviews related to the at this place. We have experienced similar situations last time when we visited here on 15.08.2025, I would like to share my thoughts and suggestions: Background knowledge: in Germany all of the public pools and well organised private pools always separate the swimmers’ from non-swimmers‘ areas. Swimmers‘ pools usually have min. 2 meters depth with jumping and diving equipments; non-swimmers‘ pools are typically having 0.8 meter -1.5 meters depth with some leisure facilities such as slides and fountains. There is a clear definition to identify a swimmer from non-swimmer: the person shall obtain a minimum level of Bronze Swimming Badge (integrated with the former Freischwimmer). In the public German schools such badge should be normally obtained by every student at the age of 7-9 year-old (end of the 3rd Grade), but some can also obtain much earlier by attending private swimming trainings outside of school. After the student passes the Bronze Badge, he or she could also continue taking on more advanced trainings for the next levels such as Silver, Gold, and Lifeguard badges. Each badge builds on the one before it and increasingly demands more technique, endurance, and safety skills. I can understand if some foreigners did not attend the German public or equivalent schooling system then they will be not easily able to define themselves if they are or non-swimmers, because they definitely never took the exam for Bronze Swimming Badge. In such case the will tell if they are able to swim in the swimmers’ by looking at the way they swim to judge if they shall stay in this swimmer pool. If they do not have Bronze Swimming Badge and the way they swim do not look like a swimmer, then they shall be asked to move to non-swimmers‘ for safety reasons. With the background above, here are the issues: The first problem of the lifeguards: the rude attitude It is correct to ask non-swimmers to leave the swimmers‘ pool, but please be kind and patient especially while dealing the children. are there to save people’s lives and maintain safety standards, not to hurt their feelings, especially when they are not aware of the reason behind. This is not restricted to local residents therefore foreign tourists can also come to swim. The reason shall be explained before telling someone to leave. It will be also great idea to make some educational notice to be shown besides the to avoid misunderstandings and conflicts. The second problem of lifeguards: discrimination based on race/gender/age/nationality/appearance This is the main problem really needs to be solved with high attention. My son 11-year-old Asian race who is fully fluent in both German and and English languages who have obtained his German Silver Swimming Badge 3 years ago in Germany was asked to leave the swimmers‘ in a very rude manner of the by given the reason that he is not a swimmer. Such reason does not make sense. I would not waste my time coming to argue with such non-sense if we do not live in the neighbourhoods. Even if the lifeguard does not believe what a child says he has the silver badge, the lifeguard could ask to talk to the parent to verify ( I was right there in the of swimmers‘ and watching them talking) instead of using very rude/humiliating German language to a child urging him to leave. This is severe mistreatment to children and should never be tolerated. The place overall is pleasant and well maintained especially for the convenient 4 hour free parking on-site which effectively lead the flow of visitors to a timely manner ( of course if everyone respects the rules). I will still recommend to visit this place to others with a remark to their lifeguards.
