EuroParcs Het Amsterdamse Bos

Located at Kleine Noorddijk 1 in Amstelveen, EuroParcs Het Amsterdamse Bos offers a rare combination: peaceful camping surrounded by nature while staying only minutes from one of Europe’s most vibrant capitals. Nestled on the southern edge of the vast Amsterdamse Bos, this green holiday park functions as a true city campsite near Amsterdam, ideal for campers, motorhome travelers, and guests seeking comfortable holiday accommodation close to the city.

The park lies outside Amsterdam’s environmental zone, making it especially attractive for motorhome owners who want easy city access without restrictions. Spacious paved RV pitches, camping fields for tents and caravans, and accommodation options such as chalets, glamping tents, hotel rooms, and hiker’s huts ensure there is a suitable stay for every type of traveler — from urban explorers to nature lovers.

EuroParcs Het Amsterdamse Bos is designed for relaxed outdoor living. Guests wake up among tall trees, water channels, and cycling paths while still enjoying practical holiday park facilities. The campsite offers modern sanitary buildings with showers and toilets, laundry facilities, Wi-Fi access, electricity connections, and service points for motorhomes. A reception area provides tourist information and assistance for planning excursions around Amsterdam and the wider North Holland region.

The surrounding forest immediately becomes part of your stay. Walking trails, cycling routes, playgrounds, and open green spaces start right outside the park, creating a calm and natural environment rarely found so close to a major European city. Bike rental services allow guests to reach Amsterdam in an authentic Dutch way — by cycling through nature directly into the city centre.

Its strategic location also makes the park a convenient overnight stop near Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, only a short drive away. Whether you arrive with a motorhome, tent, or prefer a comfortable chalet stay, EuroParcs Het Amsterdamse Bos delivers a unique balance between urban adventure and peaceful camping.

One of the biggest advantages of staying here is proximity to Amsterdam, located roughly 8–10 km from the campsite. Guests can easily reach the city centre by bicycle, public transport, or car. Within about 30 minutes, you can explore world-famous canals, museums, historic streets, and lively squares filled with cafés, restaurants, and bars.

The nearby town of Amstelveen offers supermarkets, restaurants, shopping centres, and local markets just a few minutes away, providing convenient daily amenities without entering busy Amsterdam traffic.

Nature lovers will appreciate direct access to the Amsterdamse Bos itself — a vast recreational forest larger than New York’s Central Park. Here you can enjoy cycling, canoeing, rowing lakes, outdoor swimming areas, playgrounds, and peaceful picnic spots.

Popular attractions nearby include the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, canal cruises, and cultural neighbourhoods throughout Amsterdam. Guests can also take day trips to Dutch highlights such as traditional villages, North Sea beaches, and tulip fields depending on the season.

EuroParcs Het Amsterdamse Bos is ideal for travelers seeking camping near Amsterdam without sacrificing peace and space. Because the park sits outside the environmental zone, it remains easily accessible for motorhomes and campervans — an important advantage compared to many central city accommodations.

Public transport connections and cycling routes make exploring Amsterdam simple and stress-free. Many guests prefer renting bicycles at the park to experience the classic Dutch lifestyle while avoiding parking challenges in the city centre.

The park suits a wide range of travelers: city tourists, families, campers, hikers, and travelers catching early or late flights from Schiphol Airport. Its natural surroundings create a relaxed atmosphere, especially appreciated after busy sightseeing days.

Facilities are practical rather than luxury-focused, emphasising convenience, nature, and location. Shops and restaurants are easily accessible nearby, while the forest setting provides quiet evenings and fresh air.

Due to its unique combination of nature camping, motorhome accessibility, and proximity to Amsterdam, EuroParcs Het Amsterdamse Bos is highly popular throughout spring, summer, and event periods. Early reservations are recommended — especially for motorhome pitches and weekend stays — to secure your green base just minutes from the Dutch capital.
