☀️ If the sun is out, we should probably be in a park. A relaxed afternoon hangout in the park with a bit of a desi vibe. We’ll bring some blankets, maybe a small grill, and hang out while the sun’s out. Expect snacks, music, games, and the usual laughs and chaotic stories about life in Berlin. Feel free to bring something to share — food, drinks, or something for the grill. Whether you’re from South Asia or just enjoy the vibe, you’re welcome to join.

**Join us for outdoor grass volleyball in Hasenheide park!** This event is not suitable for complete beginners. We play with two nets. The "chill court" is for mixed-level play with 3v3 up to 5v5. The "competitive court" is for higher-level 2v2 play with beach rules. Be sure to wear suitable sports clothing and perhaps bring a drink. There are no facilities such as changing rooms and showers in the park. A nearby public toilet is also available, but it might be closed, dirty, or not have toilet paper. **Location**: We play in the narrow clearing, located between the two paths in the center of Hasenheide park, on the southern side. Updates will be posted in the WhatsApp group, which you can join via [https://tinyurl.com/ParkVolley](https://tinyurl.com/ParkVolley) **RSVP**: Put yourself on the waitlist, even if other people are already on there. The waitlist is not chronological, so even if there are 30 people on there, you still have a chance! If you get a spot, you will be moved to the attending list and notified by Meetup. This is a free event with limited space. **If you can't make it, promptly update your RSVP to NO** so others can take your place. If you do not show up or cancel last minute, you will be marked as a no-show, reducing your chances of getting off the waitlist in the future. **Payment:** This event is free, but you are invited to make a 2 EUR donation towards equipment. **Attending**: Do not join if you have an infectious disease. You need to be on the attendee list to attend; **being on the waitlist is not sufficient**. Do not bring friends that are not on the attendee list. **Showing up without having a valid RSVP will get you banned**. **Safety**: Mind the terrain. The grass might be uneven and contain items such as bottle caps. It is not suitable for diving or playing like on a beach. Be careful not to twist your ankle. Keep an eye on your belongings since we are in a public park. We do *not* have a full first aid kit available. Please inform the organizer of any medical conditions that might require attention during the event.

It’s a chance to leave the busy streets behind, enjoy some fresh forest air, and spend the day exploring one of Berlin’s most beautiful landscapes with a group of curious explorers. **WHAT ARE SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS?** **Grunewald:** Berlin’s largest forest, filled with sandy trails, glacial hills, and quiet lakes. A favourite escape for those looking for nature just outside the city. **Havel River:** One of the major rivers of the Berlin-Brandenburg region. Here the river widens into large lakes and peaceful bays surrounded by forest. **Grunewaldturm:** Built in 1899, this historic observation tower rises above the forest overlooking the Havel. Climb the steps to enjoy wide views over the lakes, woodland, and the distant Berlin skyline. **Kaisergarten am Grunewaldturm:** A classic German beer garden beside the tower. With views across the river, it’s the perfect place for a relaxed break, a drink, or a snack. **Drachenberg:** One of Berlin’s best viewpoints. From the top you’ll see a sweeping panorama across the Grunewald, Teufelsberg, and the Berlin skyline. We’ll aim to reach the summit in the early evening, with the chance of catching sunset — a memorable way to finish the hike. **WHAT IS THE PLAN?** * **10:00 AM-Option A: Meeting in Alexanderplatz S Bahn Station:** Meet at Alexanderplatz station and take the S Bahn to Nikolassee Station. * **11:30 AM-Option B: Meeting in Nikolassee S Bahn Station**: Arrive at Nikolassee station and kick-off with brief introductions before starting our hike into Grunewald Forest * **12:30 PM-Scenic Hike Along the Havel:** Continue hiking the hilly forest trails along the Havel, taking breaks as desired at any of the numerous benches with beautiful lake views. * **03:30 PM-Lunch Break at Grunewaldturm Biergarten:** Arrive at the Kaisergarten am Grunewaldturm Biergarten for a well-deserved lunch and climb the Grunewaldturm * **05:00 PM-Hike Towards Teufelsberg & Drachenberg:** Continue hiking through the peaceful Grunewald Forest and over Teufelsberg towards Drachenberg * **07:15 PM-Sunset Views from Drachenberg:** Reach the top of Drachenberg and take a break to soak up the panoramic views and sunset **WHAT IS INCLUDED?** * Community leader & guide for the entire duration * Access to Google photos album dedicated for this trip for sharing all your amazing pics & videos from the trip. * Access to a WhatsApp group for confirmed participants. **OPTIONAL ADD-ONS:** * Entry to the Grunewaldturm viewing platform is optional.
