Finding parking near Moerputten, Den Bosch

Parking Moerputten is mainly about getting your car close to the trail start near the Moerputtenbrug—because the local car park is limited and fills up fast on busy days. In practice, most drivers park at the free car park on Deutersestraat and then walk to the nature area.

Free car park at Deutersestraat (trailhead for Moerputten routes)

The main starting point for walks in Moerputten is the (bike) parking area at Deutersestraat in ’s-Hertogenbosch. Local route guides describe this parking area as free and positioned near the entrance to the moor/nature area, so it’s the most direct option for reaching the Moerputtenbrug.

After parking, follow the route signage from the field/orientation point behind the car park. You’ll then transition from the parking area into the walking routes that lead toward the bridge.

When to arrive: free parking that can fill up quickly

Even though the parking area is free, capacity is limited. On sunny days and weekends, it can get busy—so aim to arrive early in the morning or later in the afternoon to improve your chances of finding a space.

If you prefer to plan around uncertainty, you can also check Mobypark before you go—Mobypark currently shows no bookable spots for this location, but availability can change.

Walk to the Moerputtenbrug: expect stairs and uneven ground

From the Deutersestraat parking area, reaching the Moerputtenbrug typically involves a staircase (a “trap”) and walking routes that include uneven/unpaved paths. In wetter periods, parts of the route can be slippery or muddy, so waterproof footwear is a practical choice.

Some sections in the Moerputten area (especially boardwalk paths) may be temporarily affected by maintenance, so it’s smart to be flexible with the exact loop you choose.

Backup plan if Deutersestraat is full: park farther out

If you can’t find a space at Deutersestraat, the most realistic move is to park on the edge of Den Bosch (for example at P+R Transferium de Vliert, P+R Transferium Deutersestraat, or P+R Transferium Petelaarpark) and continue your trip from there. This reduces the need to circle near the Moerputten access point when it’s at peak demand.

Before you set off, confirm which entrance/start point your route follows so your parking choice matches the walking direction you want.
