Presenting the winner of the category Best Day Out (Outdoors) For Families in or around Amsterdam:
Amsterdamse Bos
The Amsterdamse Bos is a vast, man-made, leafy park, a mere 20 minute bike ride from the Rijksmuseum. There is plenty to see and do in the Bos – walking, horse riding, visiting the goat farm, biking, picnicking, canoeing, swimming, taking a guided walking tour or a boat ride with a forester, and of course the Blossom Park is well worth a visit in April. Recently, the Amsterdamse Bos received its fifth certificate of excellence in a row from Tripadvisor, which puts its in their hall of fame. Entrance and parking are free of charge.
The Runners-up were:
Amsterdamse Bos – Geitenboerderij
