Agreed that it is small, but the river front is more than enough to make up for it. A nice place…read morethat matches the level of quiet with the other parks in the city.

The park, originally conceived as a cemetary and converted to its current use in 1951, is…read moreattractively laid out, with a walk path ringing the perimeter. I saw many-a jogger as I walked along this route. There are also two paths running through the center of the green space. All paths are marked with tidy-looking, wooden benches. Other than strolling, jogging or bench-sitting folk have their choice of a few things with which to occupy their time. Three separate playgrounds dot the park along with one under construction, a man-made hilly area for kids on wheels, a basketball half-court (super small) and a couple of ping pong tables. There appeared to be a rather forelorn-looking sandbox, too. Unsurprisingly, it was unoccupied. -don't know where the, ahem, 'previous tenants' of Kannenfeld now reside. Perhaps some of the only clues of K's past are the WWI Memorial honoring France's fallen soldiers and the Psalms carved in stone found at the main park entrance. A few numbered trees stand in the park accompanied w/ information regarding their origins. I spied a maple tree from Western Asia. Tidbit: Basler cop-shop directly adjacent; resident GIANT hangs about making visitors feel welcomed; small Café at main entrance. Transport: bus 30 from the HB or tram 3 direction Burgfelden Summer hours: open til 22.00 Winter hours: open til 19.00

A beautiful park with a fairly large lake in the middle. There is also a running track with a…read morefootball pitch and a Japanese garden. The lake was once a quarry, so it is quite deep (82 feet) and the drop-off from the shore can be sudden and steep, so small children need close supervision. The west end of the lake is more friendly to smaller kids, with a large, shallower area. Otherwise, one can just jump in anywhere they like. Being Germany, there are no life guards or restrictions. People even dive and jump off the pontoon bridge. Also, being Germany, there is nudity. There is no official FKK site, but there is a small area on the north shore here that has become an unofficial FKK area. It is visible from the walking path that circles the lake and some people hang out in the area with bathing suits on, which would not be tolerated at an official FKK site. Still, plenty of people of all ages (including families) were comfortable enough to go au naturel when I was there, so when in Rome (or Freiburg)... If you're looking for a more private and/or egalitarian FKK experience, seek out a nearby lake with a sanctioned site. There is a Biergarten on site at the west end of the lake. The curry wurst is just ketchup with curry powder sprinkled on it but the prices are reasonable. There is a tower to explore and a stage right on the water where a traditional oom-pah band was playing for a bit. The southeast end of the lake is easily accessible by the #1 Tram and of course the entire park is accessible by bike. I don't know about car parking in the area.
