Beautiful routes for canoe and SUP
At Watersportcentrum Sloterplas you can rent single person kayaks or 2-3 person canoes. Both types are very stable and suitable for inexperienced and novice canoeists. You can also explore the lake while SUPping (Stand Up Paddle). We always hand out life jackets.
The lake is 2 kilometers long, 500 meters wide and is situated amidst the beautiful Sloterpark in Amsterdam Nieuw-West. There are great short and long canoe routes through the park or urban area. There is something for everyone: for 30 minutes to canoeing for hours. An ideal canoe location, close to the center of Amsterdam. If you are on the lake or sail through the park, you know you’re in the city, but you feel ‘outside’.
Groups are no problem either. We have canoes for groups of up to 40 adults/children.
