Indoor snow
Velsen-Zuid · North Holland · Netherlands
Amsterdam’s premier indoor real-snow ski arena, located in Spaarnwoude Park featuring a 170m main run and a massive Summer Freestyle Park.
Operating for decades on the western outskirts of the capital city within the lush Spaarnwoude Park recreation zone, SnowWorld Amsterdam (celebrated historically as SnowPlanet) is an incredibly popular indoor winter sports destination. The highly accessible venue features a 170-metre intermediate main slope running alongside a completely separate 70-metre dedicated nursery training strip. Maintained at a crisp -5°C by highly advanced automated overhead snowmakers, it serves as the ultimate urban ski-prep base for the North Holland region.

Excellently positioned right off the A22 and A208 motorways near Haarlem. For public transport users traveling from Amsterdam Sloterdijk or Amsterdam Central, take the regional train to Haarlem or Beverwijk station, followed by local Connexxion bus transit lines dropping right beside the park grounds.
Heavy traffic concentrates heavily around school holiday blocks (particularly the July/August SnowCamps windows), weekend afternoon blocks, and specific summer evenings when freestyle riders target the specialized park features.
