Waldspielpark Tannenwald

Waldspielpark Tannenwald is a large playground and recreational area in the forest of Frankfurt's Sachsenhausen district with multiple zones for different activities. It has water play areas, sports fields, table tennis, a rollerblade track, and a sand soccer field all spread throughout the wooded site.

The playground was established in 1961 and expanded during the 1970s to create more recreational space for the population. Since then it has remained an established place where generations of Frankfurt families have spent their leisure time.

The park serves as a gathering place where families spend time together outdoors, reflecting how important forest spaces are for Frankfurt's leisure habits. People of all ages use the different areas regularly to play, exercise, or simply be together.

The park is located in the forest and easily accessible from Sachsenhausen, with parking available and basic facilities like restrooms on site. The water play areas operate only during warmer months, so it makes sense to check the current season before visiting.

The park sits directly under Frankfurt Airport flight paths, where planes can be watched landing and taking off. For some visitors this is a special experience, even though it means aircraft traffic is sometimes audible.
