Discover Berlin: Discovering the City's Many Pathways

Wednesday, June 21st

Berlin, the bustling capital of Germany, offers a multitude of transportation options that make exploring this dynamic city a breeze. Whether you prefer the convenience of public transit, the freedom of cycling, the thrill of e-scooters, or the charm of walking, Berlin has you covered!

Public Transit: Trams, U-Bahn, S-Bahn, and Buses


Berlin boasts an extensive and efficient public transit network operated by the Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe (BVG). The U-Bahn (underground metro) and S-Bahn (urban rapid transit system) are key components of the public transit system, complemented by the many trams and buses. The U-Bahn primarily operates underground, while the S-Bahn covers a larger area and includes both underground and above-ground lines, connecting the city and its outskirts. If you are up for an adventure, ride the circle on the famous Ring-Bahn on a Friday night.


BVG tickets, valid for both U-Bahn and S-Bahn, also cover trams and buses. BVG offers a range of tickets, including single tickets for short trips, day passes for unlimited travel within zones, and weekly or monthly passes for frequent travelers. Luckily for Klangers, Klang offers full-time employees (based in Berlin) the choice of either a monthly BVG ticket or Dance e-bike or moped so they can navigate the city with ease.


Bicycles: Two-Wheeled Freedom


Berlin's bike-friendly infrastructure makes cycling a popular choice for both locals and visitors. The city offers a vast network of dedicated bike lanes and paths, allowing you to pedal your way through historic neighborhoods, picturesque parks, and vibrant streets. Numerous bike rental services, such as Nextbike and Dance, provide easy access to bicycles for short-term and longer-term use. So the next time you are in Berlin, hop on a bike and embrace the freedom of exploring Berlin on two wheels!


E-scooters: Electric Thrills


For those seeking an exhilarating and eco-friendly way to get around, electric scooters have become increasingly popular in Berlin. Companies like Lime, Tier, and Voi offer rental services where you can unlock a scooter with a simple app and zip through the city streets.


Walking: Strolling Through History


With its captivating mix of architecture, green spaces, and lively neighborhoods, Berlin is a city best explored on foot. Walking allows you to soak up the unique atmosphere, discover hidden gems, and stumble upon intriguing street art. Take a leisurely stroll along stately Unter den Linden, explore the vibrant Kreuzberg district (where Klang is located!), or wander through the charming streets of Prenzlauer Berg. Berlin’s pedestrian-friendly layout and numerous pedestrian crossings make it easy and enjoyable to explore the city on foot.


And there you have it, all the different ways to explore Berlin! One of the best parts about the city is that there is always something new to discover. Plus, with the warmer weather, it is even more enjoyable to spend the day wandering around Berlin’s many districts and parks.
