Amsterdam Outdoors

The Vondelpark | This park is conveniently located in the centrum, great for practice your cycling skills, walking, coffee or lunch, hanging around with friends with drinks, or playing outside with kids.

Hire a bike | Amsterdam is best experience on two wheels. Also use the metro, it’s is so easy to transport and bring you quick to the other side of the city. There are plenty of reliable bike rentals around the city, best is to ask at the place where you stay for your best nearby options.
