Bosbaan Renovation

The historic Bosbaan in Amsterdam is currently undergoing a large-scale renovation as part of preparations for upcoming international rowing events, including the 2026 World Rowing Championships.

The works, which started in early 2025 and are scheduled to run until mid-2026, focus on upgrading both the racing course and the surrounding infrastructure. Planned improvements include renewed start and finish facilities, modernised boathouse amenities, upgraded banks and pontoons, and enhanced technical and safety systems.

In addition, dredging works are being carried out to ensure the water depth and quality meet international competition standards, while surrounding paths, bridges, and spectator areas are being improved for better accessibility and capacity.

These developments will ensure that the Bosbaan remains a world-class rowing venue and continues to provide an excellent setting for national and international regattas such as the Koninklijke Holland Beker.
