Note: This event has already passed.

Let Baumholder Outdoor Recreation take you on a whirlwind tour of the Netherlands.

We will leave Baumholder Friday the 3rd for Amsterdam were we will spend the afternoon and evening discovering all the city has to offer.  Amsterdam in the summer is all about urban beaches, green parks, outdoor art and cinema, and cool drinks on summer terraces.  That evening after supper we will travel to our hotel. 

On the 4th we have a 2.5 hour wind surfing lesson on a dune-covered dutch beach. After the surf lesson you will have the option to stay at the beach or travel with us to check out Rotterdam for the rest of the day.  Rotterdam was declared "The Capital of Cool" by Vogue magazine, and is a destination with over 100 styles of international cuisine, colorful street art and modern architecture, plus Lonely Planet's pick for the best bar in the world.

On the 5th we will have one more 2.5 hour wind surfing lesson on the beach. After

the lesson you will have the option to stay at the beach or go to the waterpark to entertain your inner child for the rest of the day.

On the 6th after breakfast we will spend a final few hours on the beach and then make our trek home.
