Kaiserslautern Outdoor Recreation and Baumholder Outdoor Recreation have teamed up to make it even easier for you to celebrate King's Day in the “the Venice of the North”!  The same adventures begin at your choice of either Smith or Pulaski Barracks, and an early bird discount makes your day in Amsterdam cheaper too.

On King's Day in Amsterdam, everyone wears orange, and so should you. If you aren't covered in head to toe orange, you just aren’t doing it right.  On King's Day in Amsterdam you can eat like a king all day with delicious treats around every corner and hundreds of street food vendors lining the roads and squares.  Make sure to try a tompouce pastry, the unofficial royal snack. On King's Day, Amsterdam becomes a city-wide flea market filled basement bargains and trinkets for sale in every front lawn and driveway. Amsterdam's canals will be flooded with orange on King's Day as thousands of brightly decorated party boats fill the famous waterways. You can still visit Amsterdam's museums on King's Day and you wont even have to take off your orange wig.

Adventures begin here! Whether you board the bus in Kaiserslautern or Baumholder, you will enjoy King’s Day in Amsterdam when your adventure begins at Army Outdoor Recreation!
