The Best Tennis Courts in Munich

Munich and the towns around it offer plenty of places to play tennis, from the indoor and outdoor courts of Rothof in Bogenhausen to the clay courts of Tennis Hirschau in the Englischer Garten. Whether you are a seasoned club player or a casual weekend warrior, finding the right court can make all the difference.

In this guide we have rounded up 13 tennis venues in and around Munich, with their ratings, courts, facilities and how to book them. Ratings and review counts are Eversports ratings as of November 2026. The list spans both clubs and sport centres open to non-members, so you can pick up a court without joining a club.

The first ten venues below take online bookings through Eversports. You can also use Tennis Court Hunter to set up free email alerts for them: it checks every 2 minutes and emails you when a court frees up, so you do not have to keep refreshing a booking page. These ten are the venues Tennis Court Hunter watches; each links to its court page.

How to Play Tennis in Munich Without a Club Membership

You do not need to join a tennis club to play tennis in Munich. All ten venues Tennis Court Hunter watches — Rothof, Tennis Hirschau, TIVO, Racket-Park TSV Haar, Tennis Center München Nord, Sporttraum, Tennispark Zillerhof, Sport Insel Taufkirchen, Tennispark Gernlinden and SV Planegg-Krailling — take public bookings with no membership required. The one catch is Planegg, whose outdoor courts are mostly for members; its winter hall is open to everyone. Simply book a court slot online through Eversports, pay per session, and show up.

Prices vary by club, time and season. As a guide, Eversports prices for the week of 6 November 2026 ran from €24 (Sporttraum) to €48 (Rothof) for an indoor hour at the clubs that book by the hour, and Rothof's outdoor courts cost €25–28 an hour. Popular slots can be hard to get. Use Tennis Court Hunter to get an email when a court frees up at any of the venues it watches.

Comparing Munich Tennis Courts: Which Venue Is Right for You?

For atmosphere: Tennis Hirschau. In the Hirschau in the northern Englischer Garten, it has 7 outdoor clay courts, a traditional beer house next to the courts, and U-Bahn access via the U3 or U6 to Dietlindenstraße.

For variety: Racket-Park TSV Haar. Besides 16 tennis courts it has squash, badminton, padel and pickleball courts, a fitness area and a sauna. Sport Insel Taufkirchen, south of Munich, is another all-rounder, with 8 squash courts, badminton, table tennis, pickleball, padel and a sauna.

In the city centre: TIVO on Oettingenstraße. It is in Lehel, and the club calls it Munich's most central tennis court. It has a single outdoor clay court and is closed in winter.

For indoor tennis all year: Tennispark Zillerhof in Gröbenzell. With 6 indoor courts on granulate carpet and 4 outdoor clay courts, open all year, and a rating of 4.9 from 75 reviews, it is a strong pick when the outdoor-only clubs are closed.

For late-evening indoor tennis: Tennis Center München Nord in Oberschleißheim. Its 3 Rebound Ace indoor courts stay open until midnight.

For booking far ahead: Sporttraum in Kirchheim bei München. Its 2 courts in an air-supported hall can be booked more than 60 days ahead, while the other clubs in the booking tips below open bookings between 6 and 27 days ahead.

For serious players: Rothof in Bogenhausen. With 7 qualified coaches, a fitness studio with personal training, a sauna and 18 courts (12 outdoor, 6 indoor), Rothof offers a complete club experience without a membership.

Tips for Booking Tennis Courts in Munich

Book early. Booking windows differ by club: SV Planegg-Krailling opens 6 days ahead, Rothof 7, Zillerhof 8, TSV Haar and Gernlinden 13, Tennis Center München Nord 20, Sport Insel Taufkirchen 27 and Sporttraum more than 60. Setting up notifications with Tennis Court Hunter lets you catch new openings without having to check manually: it checks every 2 minutes. You can pick a date up to 60 days out; if it is beyond a club's booking window, the alert waits and starts checking the day booking opens.

Prefer off-peak hours. If your schedule allows, try less popular times such as early mornings or weekday daytime instead of the slots everyone wants.

Catch cancellations. Booked courts can come free again when players cancel; Tennis Hirschau and TSV Haar, for example, let players cancel free of charge up to 24 hours before. Tennis Court Hunter checks every 2 minutes and emails you when a court frees up, including after a cancellation.

Monitor multiple facilities. When popular slots are scarce, watching a single venue may not be enough. By monitoring Rothof, Hirschau, and TSV Haar simultaneously through Tennis Court Hunter, you improve your chances. In winter, pair Rothof or TSV Haar with indoor clubs such as Zillerhof, Gernlinden or Tennis Center München Nord.

Indoor vs outdoor seasons. Outdoor seasons differ by club: TIVO and Tennis Hirschau are outdoor only and close in winter, and so do TSV Haar's clay courts, while Rothof's outdoor courts could still be booked in early November 2026. Some indoor courts are available year-round, while others only run in winter, such as the indoor clay courts at Sport Insel Taufkirchen and the air-supported hall at SV Planegg-Krailling. In autumn and winter, book indoor slots as early as the club's booking window allows. Tennis Court Hunter reads each club's booking plan every 6 hours and notices on its own when a club reopens, so TIVO and Hirschau can be picked again once their plans show open days.
