It gets hot in Cologne around Corpus Christi - perfect for going to the outdoor pool, the beer garden or the open-air cinema.

Tips for the long weekend.

Cologne – With Corpus Christi on Thursday, June 16th, a long and mostly summery weekend is just around the corner for many people in Cologne.

On Saturday, June 18th, it should even be tropically hot throughout NRW, with temperatures up to around 36 degrees.

Many people will be drawn back to the lake or the outdoor pool in the coming days.

But not only for water rats there is a lot to do in Cologne on the long weekend around Corpus Christi.

24RHEIN shows the best tips at a glance.

Cologne: outdoor pool or lake - here you can cool down on a long weekend

Summer, sun, heat - that's what the people of Cologne have in store for the long weekend.

So where better to endure it than in one of the outdoor pools in Cologne?

Among other things, the Ossendorfbad, the Lentpark natural bathing pond and the Stadionbad are open again.

The natural outdoor pool in Vingst, on the other hand, remains closed.

If the weather is nice, it is advisable to buy an e-ticket beforehand.

Because in the event of an admission stop, admission is only guaranteed with this ticket.

The tickets for the municipal pools (the Waldbad Dünnwald pool is not one of them) can be purchased online up to four days in advance via the KölnBäder GmbH website.

There are these outdoor pools in Cologne:

  • Lentpark natural bathing pond (downtown district)

  • Zündorfbad (district of Porz)

  • Höhenbergbad (district of Kalk)

  • Stadionbad in Müngersdorf (district of Lindenthal)

  • Waldbad Dünnwald (municipality of Mülheim)

The bathing lakes around Cologne also offer refreshment.

However, the water temperature should still be a bit cool there in June 2022.

According to the current measurements from

wetteronline.de

, the water temperature of the Bleibtreusee in Brühl, for example, is 17 degrees, the Otto-Maigler-See in Hürth is already 19 degrees warm (as of June 13, 2022).
