This park and lake area in southeastern Amsterdam is accessible by metro and a great spot for a bucolic run. The paths of Gaasperpark make for a ~3-4 km route, while a loop around the lake (Gaasperplas) is 5 km. You can extend the run by a couple of km with a loop around Nelson Mandelapark, just to the north. You’ll have use one of the designated paths to cross the A9– closest to Gaasperpark is Nellesteinpad.
