Car parking

Parking spaces for disabled drivers are available at many spots in the Amsterdamse Bos. All disabled parking spaces are located near the main facilities.

Accessibility

Most of the trails in the Amsterdamse Bos are asphalt or semi-paved paths. Most paths are accessible for wheelchairs. The sand paths along the Oeverlanden are less suitable for wheelchair users.

Bosmobiel carts

Update: In 2021 the Bosmobile won't be running due to the corona measures.

Two Bosmobiel carts have been donated for use by the Bosmobiel Foundation for visitors with mobility problems. These electric golf carts can hold up to five people and can be used to enjoy a forest drive. For more information, visit Bosmobiel.
