Outdoorsy Around Sloterplas

Keeping fit

Sloterpark offers something for every sports fan, including frisbee courses and endless green space for walking and jogging. A complete circuit around Sloterplas is approximately 6 km and popular with novice runners due to its handy measuring points.

De Natureluur

A playground and adventure park, De Natureluur is a surefire hit with kids of all ages. The organisers host a variety of active and educational activities, ranging from kayaking and archery to nature lessons on creepy crawlies and wildlife.

Boothuis

This charming lakeside restaurant, housed in the former canteen of the watersports club, offers breakfast, lunch, dinner and, if you want, a refreshing dip. The painted orange exterior and cabin-like interiors give the restaurant a long-summer-evening-inScandinavia-feel.

De Duikelaar and Watersportcentrum Sloterplas offer all kinds of boat rentals and courses for some splashy fun.

Van Eesteren Museum

Devoted entirely to Cornelis van Eesteren (who developed post-war Nieuw-West into the spacious district it is today), this museum is all about urban development, 20th-century society and architecture. After catching an exhibition, sit at the sprawling new café terrace, which slopes to the lakeside.
