Large Pond - Amsterdamse Bos
The Grote Vijver (Large Pond) is one of the most enjoyable places in the Amsterdamse Bos. In summer, it’s the perfect spot for a refreshing swim, and kids can climb and play to their heart’s content on the adventure play islands. It’s also a great starting point for exploring the forest from the water. You can rent a canoe, pedal boat, SUP board, or even fun mini-boats.
Nearby, you’ll find Paviljoen Chez Favié for a bite to eat, and theater lovers will be pleased to know that the open-air Amsterdamse Bostheater is just a short walk away. With all this, the area is ideal for a full day out.
Boat rental
