Lonely Planet review

The product of a 1930s make-work programme, this woody recreation area a few kilometres southwest of Amsterdam is a boon for urban nature-lovers. You'll find a petting zoo, a sports park, a rowing course with hire craft, and a pancake house, not to mention the open-air Amsterdamse Bos Theatre that stages plays in summer. The forestry museum covers flora, fauna and construction of the park.
