The Zeeburgereiland is a triangular-shaped island in North Holland, bound to the west by IJburg and the east by the Eastern Docklands and the Indische Buurt. The area was formerly used for industrial purposes until 2012, when housing projects kicked off on the grounds of an old sewage treatment complex. It’s still under development as IJburg’s new suburb, and it hopes to feature upscale shopping spots, restaurants, and more shortly. For now, the major attraction in this place is Het grootste skatepark van Nederland, a new and largest skatepark in the country, featuring exciting experiences for skateboarders and recreation seekers. You’ll also find many skating rinks around the area to try out. Check out these top skateparks in Zeeburgereiland, the Netherlands.

This new concrete paradise located in the Urban Sportzone is the largest skatepark in the country, covering an area of 33,368 square feet (3,100 square meters). Featuring a street piece and some bowls with different difficulty levels, the venue welcomes beginners and legend skateboarders, inline skaters, and BMXers. However, when the idea of the park was conceived, it was also intended for non-skaters. Therefore, the surrounding English-inspired landscape boasts sports fields, a jogging track, and green picnic areas. With its prime location, it tends to be crowded, especially on weekends. Plus, who won’t want to try out a beautiful skate rink, which opened in 2020?
