Het Park
A 21-hectare landscape park laid out in 1852 beside the Euromast on the Maas, and Rotterdam's only city park with national-monument status.
Why it made the list
Historic Zocher-designed park where dogs can run off-leash across most of the lawns, right next to the Euromast.
Good to know before you go
Dogs may walk off-leash in most of the park; the park's own 'Park Rules' page (Stichting het Park, in partnership with the city) covers dog walking. Hours were not published in the material reviewed.
Practical notes
- Combine with the Parkpaviljoen café terrace
- keep dogs clear of playgrounds and the barbecue zones.
What is available on site
- Off-leash area
- Shaded seating
