• Pick your playground by age: the Kinderzimmer on Möckernstraße suits small kids, Stangenwald by the Hornstraße entrance suits older ones, and the Westpark water playground is built for ages 2 to 10
• Water pump schedule in the nature play area: water runs from Wednesday afternoon to Sunday evening and the pump is dry Monday to Wednesday morning, so bring spare clothes later in the week
• Two halves of the park: the Ostpark (skate park, Kinderzimmer, nature play area) is nearest U-Bahn Möckernbrücke, the Westpark water playground is by the Kurfürstenstraße entrance

Park am Gleisdreieck opened in 2013 on former railway land, and U-Bahn trains still cross it on raised viaducts. Its 30 hectares hold several playgrounds, including a water playground with climbing frames and a 5,000 m² nature play area with a clay landscape and water pump. Older kids head for the 1,300 m² skate park, table tennis and beach volleyball courts.
