Top Active Leisure Sport in Netherlands

If you can, stay in a nearby town instead of Assen. Hotels in Assen get super busy, and you might save a few bucks in a surrounding area.

I suggest checking online for combo tickets that include rental gear – it saved me a good chunk of change! And it’s super convenient, too.

I recommend visiting during the afternoon on weekends; it gets lively and you can often find local players willing to show you the ropes. You’ll meet some friendly folks too!

Bring some snacks and drinks if you plan to stay a while; the onsite café can be a bit pricey, and having your own treats makes the day feel more fun.

I think it’s worth checking out the local events calendar before you go. They sometimes host small tournaments that can really enhance your experience and give you a taste of local competition

My advice is to wear comfy shoes and bring a hat or sunscreen if it’s sunny. The courts can get pretty hot, and you want to be comfy while you play.

I suggest getting there around 4 PM on weekdays. It’s less crowded, giving you more chances to play and mingle with the players without the rush.

My advice is to take a stroll along the marina during sunset. The colors are breathtaking, and you'll get some incredible photos without the crowds of the daytime.

I recommend trying to rent a bike to explore the area. It's super fun and you can see a lot more than just walking around. Plus, the views are awesome!

I suggest trying some local cheese at one of the vendors. I loved it, but be aware that it can get busy during lunch hours!
