Parking

P1 center (green)

Parking in Giethoorn is free at P1 center (green) on the Ds. JJ Ketstraat. Then walk about 100 meters to the boat rental and tour company Koppers on the Ds. T.O. Hylkemaweg 13. Attention! On busy days, the car park fills up early. We therefore advise you to arrive early, so that you can park your car and make it a nice, long day!

Parking on busy days

With the ‘busy days’ mentioned above, we mean ‘days off with summer weather’, such as:

– Easter
– Pentecost
– Ascension Day
– July and August
– Weekends.

Signs and traffic controllers

The matrix signs in front of the car park entrance indicate whether there is space or not. In addition, the municipality deploys traffic controllers on busy days. However, don’t let this well-meaning traffic controller direct you away or divert you. Tell him or her that you have made a reservation at Koppers on Hylkemaweg.

After parking

After parking  your car or coach, you can report to our gift shop or to one of our employees. You will then receive a free sailing route map and you will receive an explanation of the various sailing routes. Finally, you will receive instructions on how to operate the electric motor and your boat trip can begin!
