The heart of play: Centrumplein playgrounds
The centerpiece of the Playground Safari is the Centrumplein—the place with the most speeltuinen in one vibrant hub.
What you’ll find here:
- Big slides and climbing fun
- Waterspeeltuinen for splash-and-play
- An air trampoline for jumping sessions
- Suspense-building suspension bridges
- A zipline that takes kids from one side of the square to the other
Family bonus: The terrace of Knoest Eten en Drinken sits right next to the square. Even from indoors, you have a clear view of the play area at the back—perfect for keeping an eye on the action while you recharge.
Pro tip: Use the Centrumplein as your meeting point. It’s an easy anchor for morning kick-offs, midday snacks, and wrap-up treats after a day of exploring.
From square to sky: The Belevingspad and 7 m lookout tower
Just a short hop from the Centrumplein, the Belevingspad invites kids to follow their curiosity. The star here is the 7-meter-high lookout tower, complete with a periscope for a cool view across the campsite.
- Height: 7 meters
- Highlight: Periscope view over the camping
- Vibe: Discovery, nature clues, and a sense of adventure
Pair the tower climb with a gentle wander along the Belevingspad and you’ll unlock plenty of spontaneous micro-adventures—ideal for kids who love to scout, spot, and explore.
Sports and side quests: Sportveld and Padelbaan
Right off the adventure route you’ll find the Sportveld (sports field), a natural magnet for pick-up games and running bursts. If your crew craves a new challenge, the Padelbaan is nearby for a friendly rally.
- Sportveld: Open space for movement and games
- Padelbaan: A fun court sport the whole family can try
This duo is a great midday break between playground stops, especially if the kids want to mix climbing and sliding with sprinting and swinging racquets.
Neighborhood play: The Duinstruweel speeltuin
Some camping pitches are near a natural play area—especially around Het Duinstruweel. If you’re staying there, you’ll love how easy it is for kids to play while you relax nearby.
- Setting: Family-favorite area with pitches located by a natural playground
- Why it’s handy: Quick, close-by play without crossing the whole campsite
- Learn more: Het Duinstruweel
This is the quieter side of the Playground Safari—a cozy hub where kids can keep the adventure going between bigger outings to the Centrumplein and Belevingspad.
