OUR FAMILY ASSESSMENT

Family Intelligence

DierenPark Amersfoort is built for moving through, not just looking at. The Klim Alles route sends children climbing and scrambling around the enclosures, with a slide past the hyenas, a boat ride between ring-tailed lemurs and an underground passage with the badgers. In the autumn holiday the Dinobos becomes the setting for DinoAdventures, a family expedition with a gentler mini version for the youngest; on that route buggies can go as far as the dino breeding site and are then left in a dedicated buggy park. For lunch there are burgers at the T-rex Grill or a Dino menu at Oertijd. The park says it is open every day of the year, though daily opening times are not given, so confirm the hours for your date. The one thing to plan for is the ticket: buying online costs less than paying at the gate, so book before you drive.
