About A8ernA Skatepark
A8ernA is one of the most distinctively located skateparks in the Netherlands - built directly underneath the A8 highway overpass near Koog aan de Zaan in the Zaanstreek region. The sheltered setting means you can skate rain or shine, with the highway structure providing a massive concrete roof overhead. The park features a mix of street and transition elements including banks, ledges, manual pads, and quarter pipes, with the raw industrial aesthetic of the highway infrastructure adding atmosphere. The Zaanstreek - the Zaan region - is famous for its windmills, particularly the collection at the Zaanse Schans open-air museum just down the road. The area was one of the world's first industrial zones, with hundreds of windmills powering sawmills, oil presses, and paint factories. The park is accessible from Koog-Zaandijk station and draws riders from across the Zaanstreek who appreciate the weather-proof skating. Overhead traffic provides a constant ambient soundtrack to your session.
