Across the Border: Family Outings in Germany and France near Basel, 6 of 10: Grüttpark Lörrach


Grüttpark is a landscape park laid out for the 1983 state garden show, with 73 hectares of planted woods, man-made streams and the Grüttsee lake. Kids get playgrounds, a raft to play on, and room to run between the trees. Paved paths suit bikes and inline skates, and there's a pump track, disc golf and a rose garden. Graffiti murals cover the motorway bridge pillars.
