Your dog is part of the family – so why shouldn’t he come along? Luckily, there are plenty of fun and dog-friendly outings in the Netherlands. We list our five favorites.
1. The Veluwe – Endless hiking trails
With miles of off-leash areas, the Veluwe is perfect for adventurous dogs. Also visit the Dog Forest near Kootwijk.
2. Amsterdam Water Supply Dunes – Nature and adventure
Entrance at Zandvoortselaan or Oase, where you can spot wild animals together with your dog (on a leash). Don't forget your camera.
3. Pavilion Loef in Wijk aan Zee – Dog-friendly catering
Here your dog is not only welcome, he also gets a biscuit and water. After dinner, enjoy a breath of fresh air on the beach.
4. Fort at Rijnauwen – Culture + walking
A hidden gem near Utrecht. The outdoor route is dog-friendly and runs along old fort walls and lots of greenery.
5. Kerbert Animal Shelter Dog Playground – Carefree Playtime Fun
In IJmuiden you will find a fully fenced playground especially for dogs. Ideal for young or insecure four-legged friends.
With these days out you can enjoy the summer together with your dog. Don't forget to bring a few essentials from Jaap & Co - stylish, comfortable and ready for adventure.
