During the autumn break, there’s something for everyone. Activities for kids or the whole family! Visit a puppet show, make your own decorated pumpkin, or listen to the hidden sounds of the Amsterdamse Bos.
Out in the Open Air - Enjoy autumn colors and nature
Have you noticed how beautifully the leaves are changing? Crunchy leaves under your shoes, mushrooms along the path, beech nuts and chestnuts everywhere. Autumn might just be the best time to venture into the forest.
This autumn, there’s more to experience than usual—or rather, more to hear than usual—because as part of Het Onzichtbare Zichtbaar (Making the Invisible Visible), workshops in the Amsterdamse Bos let you discover the hidden sounds of the forest under the guidance of sound artists.
