  • Peaceful site in the 900-hectare Amsterdam Forest
  • Half an hour from Amsterdam city centre by bike: cycle hire on site
  • Very close public transport links for Amsterdam and Schiphol airport
An Amsterdam break… but without the noise, crowds and expense that come with city centre stays? If that sounds like quite the combo, take a look at EuroParcs Het Amsterdamse Bos, a peaceful North Holland site surrounded by woodland, canals and open spaces in the 900-hectare Amsterdam Forest, 10 minutes’ drive from Amstelveen. Although you might not guess it from the gorgeous green surrounds (which lend themselves well to strolls, swims, bike rides and canoe trips), the site is just eight kilometres from Amsterdam’s city centre. Arguably the best way to get there (and to blend in with the locals) is to hire bikes on site and pedal off along a cycle lane through the Vondelpark to the city’s central attractions in around half an hour or so. For those who prefer to save their muscle power for meandering around museums, it’s also easy to ride into the centre via public transport – a bus stop is just outside the site, and there’s a metro station within walking distance as well. Handily, there’s also a direct bus to Schiphol airport (around 20 minutes away) for easy getaways by air or connecting with trains to other Dutch cities. And there’s no need to put an early curfew on proceedings either – night owls can party in town until late, as public transport runs through to the small hours. Back at base, lots of essential facilities are sorted, including a shop, a launderette and a self-catering kitchen with dining room; there’s also a spacious bathroom block with plenty of toilets and showers.

What customers say

This is a large, generally clean and well-maintained campsite with friendly staff. Visitors praise its beautiful natural setting, ideal for cycling and walking, with easy transport links to Amsterdam. While most reviews highlight the peaceful atmosphere and good facilities, some mention noise from planes and nearby roads, and a few found pitches small or facilities needing modernisation.

Sarah J.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch (large, maximum 8 metres, waterside)

Liked Good ambience and surrounding. Shop on site amd food.

Disliked Had to pay for electric which I didn't expect to pay
But never the leds wasn't expensive for 2 nights only 6 euros. The location is misleading as it says its 30 mins from Amsterdam city which isn't the case. You can bike 45 mins ot take a taxi which costs around 70 euros for 5 people one way which is around 40 english pounds. We got a discount which reduced it but never the less still expensive one way. The staff mediocre. Didn't feel that welcome vibe

David B.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch (large, maximum 8 metres, waterside)

Liked The pitch had a great view of the water and the facilities on-site were good. It had a lovely atmosphere as well and the surrounding forest was good for bike riding

Disliked The showers in one block were cold on the morning we left, though I tried the other block and that one did have hot water.
Public transport to the centre of Amsterdam was not great so we ended up getting an Uber in.

Electric grass touring caravan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Le camping est très bien situé : au coeur du bois, à 2 minutes de l'arrêt de bus pour Amsterdam qui est très accessible. Grand camping, cadre sympa, calme, supérette, ...

Disliked Sanitaires entretenus et bien équipés mais tellement fréquentés que difficiles à tenir propres. Un peu limite.

Francesco A.

Electric grass touring caravan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Lo spazio della piazzola era sufficiente per un soggiorno di 6 notti. Il prezzo è adeguato, non eccessivo. Il noleggio delle bici è una bella soluzione per andare ad Amsterdam

Disliked Le docce non funzionavano bene: troppo spesso fredde, in particolare quelle delle donne. La pulizia dei servizi igienici era insufficiente. L'assenza di una card per entrare-uscire ci ha fatto perdere tempo al rientro, nell'ultima sera prima di ripartire. Bisogna calcolare almeno tre quarti d'ora per arrivare in città in bici o utilizzando i mezzi pubblici, e andrebbe spiegato meglio ai turisti come arrivare ad Amsterdam, che credo sia la meta di tutti.

Local attractions

Amsterdam – where to start? Well, depending on your interests, there’s (deep breath…) the Rijksmuseum, the Rembrandt Museum, the Van Gogh Museum, the Anne Frank House, the Heineken Experience, canal boat trips, Amsterdam Zoo, the houseboat museum – plus of course stacks of cafés, bars and clubs… best be planning several days (and nights) to take it all in. As enticing as it is, Amsterdam’s not the only attraction around these parts. Those seeking to tick off classic Dutch sights should aim for the Aalsmeer flower auction (10 minutes’ drive), snap windmill pics in Zaanse Schans (15 minutes) and take a tasty trip to the Alkmaar cheese market (35 minutes). If it’s time for a few breaths of sea air, venture to the fishing village of Volendam (35 minutes) to eat by the harbour while locals wander about in traditional dress, or head west to Zandvoort (25 minutes) for beach days, strolls in the sand dunes or watersports including paddleboarding and kitesurfing.
