About the Mini-Safaris:
This summer, children and teenagers in Amsterdam-Noord are going on an adventure at De Ceuvel! In a fun and accessible way, they’ll discover just how much life is hiding in their own neighborhood.
During these Mini-Safaris (8 in total), they’ll explore the Ceuvel grounds together with a guide. You’ll search for everything that lives, crawls, flies, or grows between the pavement, piers, and plants — from snails and bees to water creatures, birds, and wild herbs.
Afterwards, you’re guaranteed to see the nature around you with fresh eyes.
About this safari: dusk
As the sun begins to set, nature comes back to life. Dive into the world of animals and plants with Anke by looking like an owl and listening like a deer. What happens at De Ceuvel when dusk begins?
About the guide: Anke Wijnja
Anke is a forager, herbalist, and Speaker for the Living. She has been part of De Ceuvel since the very beginning and is the “ranger” of the Purifying Park on the site. She knows this area like the back of her hand.
Info for parents and guardians
For this safari, we start and stay at De Ceuvel. Please arrive on time.
Children participate under the supervision of a parent, guardian, or other responsible adult. It is not allowed to leave your child unattended: as a parent or guardian, you remain responsible for your child.
Parents are very welcome to join: the safaris are fun and educational for all ages. Prefer to wait? We will provide free coffee and tea. From 12:00, Café de Ceuvel will also be open.
