Our Local Experts say:

The Dutch are well known around the world for their sporting pedigree. Whether it’s Skiing, rock climbing, tennis, or just jogging in the park, you can be sure that it’s possible somewhere. This is reflected in the Amsterdam sports infrastructure.

Travellers with a need for speed can visit the Race Planet. Others who prefer their action to have a little less pace can add the Friday Night Skate, held every Friday night at Vondel Park, to their things to do list. After a race or a skate, travellers can head to any of the swimming pools for a quick dip too.
