6x Outdoor Activities for Kids in Eindhoven Area
Are you planning on visiting Eindhoven with your family this summer? We’ve selected some great spots where children can play, discover, and enjoy the outdoors. Check out the six outdoor spots for kids here.
Eigen Wijs Boerderij
An instant hit for children is the petting zoo called Eigen Wijs Boerderij. Children are given a lot of space to learn, play and of course cuddle with all kinds of animals. A small selection of their farm inhabitants: three farm cats, lambs, goats, chickens, and more.
Genneper Hoeve
In the middle of the city, on Gennep Estate, you'll find the Genneper Hoeve. A very suitable place to enjoy the outdoors even with children. The animals are not the only attraction at this city farm, it’s also a lovely place to go for a walk or have a look at the cheese dairy. To end off the day we suggest you visit the farm shop for the freshest eggs, herbs, and apple juices!
Heempark
The Heempark Brother Simon Deltour is the perfect place to immerse yourself and your children in nature. What is special about this demarcated piece of the park is that it suffices with the indigenous flora and fauna of Eindhoven. A nice addition to the walk is a stop at the Genneper Watermill.
Philips Fruittuin
Not only will you learn more about growing fruit in the Philips Fruit Garden, but there is also room for playing a game. In the orchard, treasure hunts are hosted including game trails and you can also go on one of their guided tours. You can go to the restaurant de Proeftuin for a delicious pancake afterward.
PreHistorisch Dorp
In this open-air museum, children and parents experience the past in a new way. From smelling and tasting to exploring, this playful discovery is guaranteed to provide an afternoon of fun.
Playgrounds
Something that should not be missing from a list of outdoor spaces for children are playgrounds. Now Eindhoven has a number of them, including Speelpark de Splinter and the Philips Lenneppark, which we would like to highlight for you in our list of cool playgrounds.
