A day out to Almere and have no idea what to do? From a City Walk to shopping in Almere Centrum and the ultimate adrenaline rush to resting in nature. There really is plenty to do for young and old! We have listed the best tips for you. Read on quickly.

City Walk
Did you know that Almere is an internationally acclaimed architecture destination? Discover Almere's architectural highlights by bike, on foot with or without a guide. Set off with one of our city guides during the City Walks (don't forget to book in advance), or buy the Architecture Tour from Tourist Information Almere and discover on your own which architects have left their signature in Almere Centrum.

Shopping in Almere Centrum
With major fashion brands such as H&M, Primark and Pull and Bear, ZARA & Superdry, it is a shopping paradise for everyone. You'll also find speciality shops here. Not for nothing did Almere Centrum win the title Best Inner City 2017 - 2020 in 2017. And... parking is also super easy under the city.

Discover the Oostvaardersplassen
Between Almere and Lelystad lies the extraordinary Oostvaardersplassen nature reserve. Here, nature sets the pace. From the Nature Experience Centre, you will have a wonderful view of the Oostvaardersplassen with one of the available binoculars. Will you spot the big 5 of Almere? Are you coming by bike? Oostvaardersplassen is one of the TOP (Tourist Transfer Points) locations in Almere.

Almere from the water
Sail through the nature parks, city canals and along the skyline or go on a 'voyage of discovery' on Almere's vast lakes. Don't have your own boat? Then hire a boat. Are you with a large group? Then choose the Grote Sloep and sail these routes with a group of up to 65 people!

Visit Stadslandgoed de Kemphaan
Stadslandgoed de Kemphaan is where you can enjoy an adventurous day out in the middle of nature. Children can romp in the Zuiderzee Play Forest, climb in treetops at Klimpark Fun Forest and feast on delicious pancakes at Family and Pancake Restaurant de Kemphaan. Go on a walk with the forest ranger or discover the animals at Dierenpark Almere Jungle. On Saturday mornings, be sure to visit the organic farmers' market.

The ultimate adrenaline rush
What is a survival without mud? Nothing indeed. So have fun at Outdoorpark SEC Almere. Do you prefer an adrenaline kick on the water? Then go to Cablepark View Almere and learn water-skiing or wakeboarding.

Discover Almere by bike
In Almere, you have more than 440 kilometres of separate cycle paths. So it's the perfect place to go cycling. At Tourist Information Almere, you'll find various routes through nature, along the architecture and the water. Don't have a bike? These are also available for hire from Tourist Information Almere.

Relaxed day out
Return home completely relaxed after a weekend in Almere? Then finish at Thermen La Mer, a luxurious Day-Spa and pleasantly tucked away in a wooded area. Thermen La Mer offers a variety of Sauna & Wellness-Beauty facilities.
