The smell of gasoline hangs in the air, the roar of the engines fuels the anticipation, and only a few centimeters separate you from the asphalt. When everyday life in Berlin calls for more than just a walk in the park, a real speed duel awaits you and your friends just outside the city gates.
Racing Fever in Schönerlinde
Just a short drive from the city center, you’ll find the Schönerlinde Kart Track at Alter Heerweg 3-4, 16348 Berlin. After about a 30-minute drive, you’ll swap city noise for screeching tires and a racing atmosphere. Here, it’s all about competing with friends, finding the ideal racing line, and leaving the stress of everyday life behind for a few laps. The outdoor track offers the perfect setting for this.
Before the race starts, everyone receives a brief briefing and the appropriate equipment. The track’s hours vary by season, but are generally Wednesday through Friday starting at 2:00 PM and on weekends and holidays starting at 10:00 AM. Since spots fill up quickly, especially on sunny days, be sure to reserve your slot online in advance.
From the track to the bistro
A single 10-minute ride for adults costs about 20 euros, which is within the usual price range for go-kart tracks of this kind. If you’re immediately gripped by racing fever, you can opt for discounted multi-ride tickets—such as three rides for around 55 euros, which significantly reduces the price per lap. And if a previously undiscovered talent emerges during the first few laps, additional rides can be easily booked on-site—spontaneous rematches included.
Once the winner is decided, you can wind down the day in the small bistro on the premises . Over snacks and cold drinks, it’s the perfect spot to talk shop about the most daring overtaking maneuvers and the closest finishes. By the way, the facility isn’t just for private outings: corporate events can also be held here, as the entire track can be rented exclusively—perfect for adding some serious speed and adrenaline to your next team-building event.
