The best things to do with kids in Munich
30.07.2023 - 11:17 / lonelyplanet.com
Munich is a fantastic place to visit with kids. The ample greenery and great public transport system make the city feel relaxed and accessible, despite its size.
Even beer gardens and Oktoberfest cater to children, meaning you won’t have to miss out on the city's most famous attractions. Here's everything you need to know about bringing the family to Munich.
Alongside fun museums and attractions, Munich’s biggest selling point for families is its open spaces. The large parks and river banks appeal to different age groups and offer an opportunity to unwind and let off some steam in between the sights.
While more formal restaurants are perhaps best avoided with little ones, there are many child-friendly places to eat and drink, as well as bakeries and open-air food markets for a quick bite on the go. Beer gardens are a winner in summer as you can bring your own food to the self-service areas. A number have playgrounds too!
Munich is relatively flat and the pavements are generally buggy friendly. Well-marked bike lanes make cycling a popular choice, with many parents shuttling kids around in cargo bikes while older siblings pedal alongside. There are elevators in most stations and designated areas for families on certain trains.
There are a lot of public parks to choose from but don’t miss Englischer Garten or Olympiapark. Some time by the river Isar is also a must. The city center and old town are doable with kids but can feel quite crowded at times. Try quieter neighborhoods such as Haidhausen or Schwabing for more space and an abundance of babycinos.
Munich’s zoo is located in the south of the city close to the river. There’s quite some ground to cover here so bring a buggy or carrier, or hire one of their hand-pulled carts (Bollerwagen) for around five euros.
Skip the food inside and stop at Kiosk 1917 next to Thalkirchen subway station for locally roasted coffee and a small selection of light bites instead. If you still have time and energy, head down to the water’s edge for a stroll.
This attractive square in Haidhausen is a good place to start a tour of the neighborhood or pick up some rations for an afternoon at the playground (Spielplatz Grütznerbergl) next door.
Join other parents at cute cafe Little Rabbit’s Room or grab some fruit and other snacks from the small market stalls. The Hofbräukeller beer garden on the corner of the square is also full of local families.
If you need somewhere for a long buggy nap or some space for a toddler to run around, then look no further than Englischer Garten. Stretching over five kilometers through the city, the huge area is built in the style of an English landscape garden, hence the name.
You can explore with no destination in mind, head to the meadows in the north

Edinburgh beyond the fringe: the best day trips from the city by train
Of the half million annual visitors to the Edinburgh International Festival (running from 4-28 August this year), the vast majority don’t leave the city. Which is understandable given the cultural smörgåsbord on offer, and that it takes place in (arguably) the UK’s most attractive city. But it’s also a wasted opportunity given that this is the capital of one of the most beautiful countries in the world, with a wealth of stunning scenery on its doorstep.

Practical tips for travelling with kids
When we become parents, we accept that we’ll have to make a few changes to the things we love to do. Sunday lie-ins are replaced with early morning stomps around National Trust sites. Spontaneous trips to the cinema turned into carefully planned outings to watch the latest Disney offering. Brunch at the weekend is now a visit to a farm, downing a cup of tea while the kids are let loose in the soft play.
