Rudower Höhe, Park in Neukölln district, Berlin, Germany.
Rudower Höhe is a green space built around an artificial hill about 70 meters high, featuring walking trails, playgrounds and a viewing platform. The area invites visitors to stroll and enjoy outdoor activities.
The artificial hill was built in the 1950s from rubble left by wartime bombing and turned destruction into a place for rest and play. This transformation shows how Berlin recovered after World War II.
This place serves as a gathering spot where neighbors meet throughout the year for walks and outdoor play with children. Families regularly use the green spaces for relaxed afternoons and casual meetings.
The park is accessible year-round at no cost, located at Künnekeweg 1 with public transportation and nearby parking available. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes if planning to reach the viewing platform, as the climb to the top requires some effort.
In winter the hill becomes a popular sledding spot where families race down the snowy slopes. The site also preserves about 400 meters of the original Berlin Wall as a protected historical monument.
