Playgrounds

The Hague has more than 400 play areas throughout the city. Here we’ve highlighted a few special playgrounds:

Cantaloupenburg playground

Let the kids go wild on the slide and climbing frames at this playground in the centre of the city.

Robin Hood playground

Children between the ages of 6 and 12 can discover the multifaceted nature of the Haagse Bos. A zip wire cableway, suspension bridge and lookout posts bring the mediaeval roots of the forest to life. Climbing walls turns everyone into a hero like Robin Hood. The play equipment is made from natural materials and the ground is covered with wood shavings.

Ot en Sien playground

The six-metre high play castle will certainly capture the imagination of older children. But Ot en Sien is also an adventure for young children, with spring toys and swings on a sandy ground. The playground is located in the Zuiderpark.

Ary van der Spuyweg playground

Not far from the Peace Palace you will find a lovely large playground and a skateboard park. Its location at the edge of the Scheveningse Bosjes means that a visit is easily combined with a walk in the forest. Children will find plenty to keep them busy in the playground set on sandy ground while parents can relax and treat themselves to an ice cream.
