Geuzenbos, Nature area in Sloterdijk, Netherlands.

The Geuzenbos covers 70 hectares of land divided by Wethouder van Essenweg, featuring diverse tree species, walking paths, and open recreational spaces.

The land beneath Geuzenbos remained underwater until 1875, protected by the Spaarndammerdijk dam that was constructed in 1100 to guard against IJ water.

The forest holds a historical ban pole from 1624, which Dutch painter Rembrandt captured in an etching around 1650, relocated 150 meters from its original position.

Visitors can access the nature area through multiple entry points, including one near Boezemgemaal Halfweg, with clear pathways throughout the grounds.

Scottish Highland cattle and Konik horses roam freely through the grounds, naturally maintaining the ecological balance of this Amsterdam green space.
