Dante-Winter-Warmfreibad

The facility was super clean. The pool was rather crowded and many slower swimmers were neither swimming in a straight line nor circle swimming: One woman was swimming at 90º to everyone else. The day I went was not super for lap swimmers, but swimming outside in winter is worth it. There is a changing room for women and one for mixed.

There were three lanes roped off when I was there. The pool seemed rather popular with at least four people in each lane. Even more people came at lunch time. The water was warmer than it needed to be for serious lap swimming. The people circle swam but few of the slower people waited for the faster swimmers to pass at the turns.

The admission price includes use of the attached fitness room.

The pool is easily reached with public transportation. Take the U1/7 to Westfriedhof. Exit at Boulurstraße/Homerstraße; walk to Homerstraße and go right. The pool is one block down on the right side.

This is one of the best swimmers' pools I have ever swum in. There are two lanes blocked off for fast swimmers, and there are good swimmers to race there. There is lots of room for the slower swimmers in the other 6 lanes.There is also a separate pool with water jets and fountains to relax in (it is hotter, like 32º C.). And all this under the stars until 11.00 at night. It is closed for a couple of weeks in the fall and in the spring for renovation.
