Keukenhof
Spring is the perfect season to discover the Dutch Flower Region. From The Butchersfarm, Keukenhof can be reached in approximately 35 minutes by car. Every spring, millions of flowers transform the area around Lisse into one of the most colourful landscapes in the world.
Keukenhof is open from late March until mid-May and features more than seven million flowering bulbs. Visitors can enjoy spectacular displays of tulips, daffodils, hyacinths, orchids and many other spring flowers. Beautiful gardens, ponds, art installations and seasonal exhibitions make it one of the Netherlands' most famous attractions.
The surrounding countryside is equally impressive. The flower fields around Lisse, Hillegom, Noordwijkerhout and Voorhout offer endless opportunities for walking, cycling and photography. Every week the colours change as different flowers come into bloom.
A visit to Keukenhof is easy to combine with other destinations. Spend time in the historic city of Leiden, relax on the beaches of Noordwijk or Katwijk, visit Keukenhof Castle and Estate, or explore the medieval Ruins of Teylingen.
We recommend arriving early in the morning, especially during weekends and school holidays. Booking tickets and parking online before your visit will help you avoid queues.
After a day surrounded by colourful flowers, return to the peaceful countryside of The Butchersfarm and enjoy the tranquillity of the Green Heart of Holland.
Practical tips:
• Check the current flowering conditions before visiting.
• Arrive early for the best experience.
• Bring your camera for unforgettable photographs.
