Nordpark, Aquazoo and the Rhine lawns

Why go

Families who like to alternate looking and moving can keep this day within Düsseldorf’s northern green belt. Start in Nordpark, where formal planting, fountains and sculpture give everyone space to explore. Aquazoo lies beside the park and offers the day’s longest focused visit, with aquariums, living habitats and natural-history collections. The final stretch to Rheinpark Golzheim is a real walk of roughly two kilometres between mapped points, so plan it as part of the outing rather than a quick hop. The reward is a broad riverside green space where the pace can ease again. Check Aquazoo’s current visiting information before departure.
