Volksgarten
The Volksgarten not only has beautiful sunbathing areas, a small lake and lots of ducks that you can watch all day, but also a basketball court and, most importantly, four table tennis tables! A single table is located in the north of the park and is surrounded by a wooden fence and in the west there are three tables in a shady spot. The beer garden provides cold drinks or ice cream for the award ceremony or simply for refreshments. The courts are very popular and there are usually enough potential opponents on the court so that you can go off on your own with your racket.
Where? Eifelstraße, 50677 Cologne / Neustadt-Süd
Humboldt Park
Humboldtpark offers two top table tennis tables in Kalk. They are not really sheltered from the wind, but the tables are in great condition. Straight as a die, smooth surface and edged with a concrete floor. The park isn't necessarily the prettiest, the atmosphere is rather rough, more chalky but quiet, but that also means: fewer people who are hot for the table tennis table. So you're guaranteed a quick turn here and can get your rackets ready.
Where? Burgenlandstraße 3b, 51105 Cologne / Kalk
Rathenauplatz
Rathenauplatz is the perfect spot for a good table tennis match with friends. The atmosphere is wonderful, the trees provide shade, there are people everywhere enjoying the fresh air and the cheering footballers on the football pitch provide the right background music and motivation. What's more, the pitches are almost as good as new and it's a real pleasure to play there. Word has got around about this, which is why you can expect a long wait when the weather is good. You can pass the time with a visit to the beer garden, the numerous kiosks in the area or perhaps with a game of boules.
Where? Rathenauplatz 30 50674 Cologne / Neustadt-Süd
Old fire station
The Alte Feuerwache Köln is a place of exchange, political debate and cultural activity. The heart of the Alte Feuerwache Köln is its open inner courtyard. This is the perfect place to play table tennis and chill out with your friends. The tables are sheltered from the wind and the atmosphere is harmonious. Our highlight in the inner courtyard is the freely accessible graffiti wall, which invites you to spray legally and contributes to a cool backdrop. You can also feast here at fair prices and fortify yourself for the next game of table tennis.
Where? Melchiorstraße 3, 50670 Cologne / Agnes-Viertel
Mülheim city garden
Playing table tennis centrally and idyllically on the Schälsick - no problem. How about the table tennis tables in Mülheim's city park? Here you can escape from the noise of Wiener Platz and unwind. Because the Mülheim city garden has a lot to offer: a huge meadow for chilling out and barbecuing, a small forest, a beautiful weeping willow and a pond that is constantly occupied by water birds. The new Bagatelle summer garden provides delicious food and cool drinks. It's the perfect atmosphere for your next table tennis match.
Where? Jan-Wellem-Straße 23, 51065 Cologne / Mülheim
