Unwind in Flevopark, a leafy green escape in Amsterdam-Oost. Picnic on the lawns, follow the jogging paths under the trees and cool off at the big outdoor pool in summer.
Full description
Flevopark in Amsterdam-Oost combines open lawns with shaded, almost woodland corners that reviewers say feel wild enough for a gnome to appear. It offers picnic space, tennis courts and jogging paths, plus a large outdoor swimming pool that anchors summer visits.
A few places to eat and drink and plenty of seating make it easy to stay for a while. Locals treat it as a weekly escape from the bustle, and a statue and quiet picnic spots reward those who wander.
It is open all day and night.

This is my favorite park in Amsterdam. It feels so wild—like a gnome could wander out from behind a tree at any moment and I wouldn’t be surprised. There is a tree I like to climb in, I feel that it holds a lot of secrets. You can swim in the reservoir behind the park. It’s a bit marshy but still refreshing.
