Open AirMisburger Bad

The Misburg outdoor pool is one of the largest outdoor pools in Hanover and super popular. There is a huge swimming pool, a cool slide and plenty of space to relax. Perfect for swimming a few laps after work or spending the whole day on the sunbathing lawn. Tip: Afterwards, it's worth making a detour to Misburger Wäldchen - or grab an ice cream at the ice cream parlor on Waldstraße.
Hainhölzer Naturbad

Less chlorine, more nature: the Hainholz natural pool is an insider tip in Hanover. Here you can swim in clear water without any chemicals, surrounded by greenery. Ideal if you want to really switch off.
Ricklinger Kiesteiche

Okay, not a classic outdoor pool, but absolutely worth mentioning: the Ricklinger Kiesteiche are THE destination for anyone who wants to swap outdoor pools for the great outdoors. Swimming, sunbathing, picnicking - everything that's fun is allowed here (except barbecuing, sorry!). Our suggestion: start with a day of swimming at the gravel ponds and then take a short bike ride along the banks of the Leine towards the city center.
