PUBLIC TRANSPORT: METRO MAP

From any of the train stations in the city, like Central Station, or RAI, or Station Zuid/WTC (closest to the airport), you can get to the Metro. Please see the Metro Map for more info.

If interested in the travel times using public transport from the airport, use the dutch transport site, http://www.9292ov.nl and enter treinstation “schiphol” as your departure address, and “Drie Burgpad” as your destination. It will give you travel advice, timing, price, etc. a typically journey takes about 30 minutes. Taxi is also an option, but is more costly (~25 Euros).

(then walk or bus to fields)

Via Amsterdam Zuid/WTC

From the airport take a train to Amsterdam Zuid/WTC station (about 7mins on train). From there get on Metro 51 towards Central Station. Get off at Amsterdam Amstel Station and follow either the walking or bus directions given below. Use this Metro Map.

PUBLIC TRANSPORT: CENTRAL STATION TO AMSTEL STATION
(then walk or bus to fields)

Take a train or metro (lines 51, 53 or 54) to Amsterdam Amstel Station. From there there’s a hard choice to be made. Fortunately both options will bring you to WW’08!! You can either take a walk along a canel to the fields, or take the bus. See below for details.

AMSTEL STATION TO CENTRAL FIELDS

Walking

(15 minutes by foot) Get out at the main entrance of station Amsterdam Amstel and take a right (this is the side with buses and trams). Walk south with the railway on your right hand, making a slight right to follow the bike path. Where the road goes underneath a railroad bridge (after about 200 meters) cross the street and walk southeast along a canal (do not go under the bridge!). After about 300 meters take a left down to the road (in Holland canals are sometimes ABOVE the road!) onto the Kruislaan. The fields on the right are part of the tournament. The camping is just beyond them.

Bus

There is a bus option that comes near the field, but you still have to walk a short distance. From Amstel Station, take bus 40 in direction Muiderpoorstation -- Exit the bus at the Maxwellstraat/Kruislaan stop. Turn right onto Kruislaan and head towards the highway. After approximately 3 blocks you will cross under a bridge that cars are not able to drive under. Continue straight along Kruislaan and turn left onto Burgpad. You will see the fields on either side. Enter the fields on the left hand side and follow the path towards the main tent. This map will help after you get off the bus:
