  • Public Transport

    From Utrecht Central Station, take the train towards Amsterdam Central Station. The journey takes approximately 25-30 minutes. Once you arrive at Amsterdam Central Station, exit the station and head towards the bus terminal located just outside the main entrance.

From the bus stop, walk a short distance to Floraparkweg 1, where Noorderpark is located.

    If you prefer cycling, you can rent a bike from one of the many rental shops in Utrecht. Head towards the direction of Amsterdam via the bike paths.
