About
KinderGleisKreis is a supervised pop-up playground on disused railroad tracks in the Dreispitz area. Kids build it themselves around a railroad theme and their own ideas, with help from the play team. Old freight wagons hold a workshop and a living room, a covered wagon serves as a workbench, and homemade rail trolleys roll along the tracks. Younger kids pull each other in small wagons on a kids' track.
