Moving to Hamburg!?

Eva · 12-03-2007, 08:18 PM

Hi, I am moving to Hamburg in Germany for three months starting in January. I am a mad swimmer and was wondering if anyone could tell me if there are any indoor olympic swimming pools there and what their names are. I have looked online, but it is all mostly in German (which I don't speak).

Would really appreciate anyone's help.

A "Bad" that has an olympic-sized swimming pool is the "Alster-Schwimmhalle". They offer special training for triathletes, you might be interested in joining if you are as crazy as you say.
The address is Ifflandstrasse 21.

Another option with a 50m pool would be the Kaifu-Bad at Hohe Weide 15.

You can see all swimming locations here.

The red circles are outdoor (summer only).

BTW, have you tried using google translator?

Something that also could be interesting to you is that you can "rent a lane" at Bondenwald, Friedrich-Ebert-Strasse 71. Unfortunately the indoor pool there is only 25 m (half-olympic size), but if there is nobody in your way... Price for this is 8,40 EUR for 30 min.
