Parking Club Pellikaan Amersfoort, Amersfoort

Start with parking at Club Pellikaan (De Brand 5)

If you’re looking for parking Club Pellikaan Amersfoort, the most straightforward option is to use the free on-site parking available for visitors at De Brand 5. For many arrivals this is simply the fastest way to avoid street-searching.

If that area is full, your next step is usually the street parking in Vathorst (where parking is often free), before you head toward the more heavily regulated paid zones closer to the city center.

Street parking in Vathorst: often free, but always check the signs

Around Vathorst—especially near the shopping area—street parking is generally free for drivers. That makes it a practical choice for shorter visits when you want to park close without committing to a garage.

Still, the rules can change street by street. Look for the exact signage for the parking zone (paid vs. free, maximum stay, and any blue-disc rules).

Paid parking rules as you get closer to central Amersfoort

When you end up in paid areas (often toward the center), Amersfoort uses different zone types. Common patterns include:

• Day-ticket zone (B1 and ring around the inner city): typically €3 for the first hour, then a day ticket of €60. Paid parking is generally Mon–Sat 09:00–00:00 and Sun 12:00–00:00.
• Other B-zones: typically €3 per hour with similar paid times (Mon–Sat 09:00–00:00, Sun 12:00–00:00).
• Zones X/Y/Z: usually have short maximum stays (often 1/2/4 hours) and typically €2.85 per hour on Saturday and €2.45 per hour on other days. Paid parking is typically Mon–Sat 09:00–20:30 (station-related areas may differ).

If you’re entering a time-limited paid zone and don’t want to keep searching when restrictions are active, you can also check Mobypark for any future availability near De Brand 5.

Garages and P+R: a more predictable option if street parking is busy

For drivers who prefer convenience (especially on busier shopping/sport days), parking in a public garage or using a P+R can be easier than trying to find a free curb spot.

• Station-area garages: central/station examples include a garage at Amersfoort Station (around €2.42/hour) and Parking garage Asch van Wijck (around €2.75/hour). Always confirm the current rate on the garage signage/website.
• P+R options: Barchman Wuytierslaan and Piet Mondriaanplein are common Park-and-Ride picks for station access.
• Free P+R: Schothorst station (Inputplein) is reported as free P+R.

Parking with a disability permit (GPK) in Amersfoort

If you use an EU GPK (European disability parking card), the key is knowing which type of disabled space you’re using:

• General disabled parking bays (“Algemene Gehandicapten Parkeerplaatsen”): typically allow free parking.
• Other public paid spaces: in many cases you need the Parkeren Plus app to park for free with your GPK (rules have been updated over time, including requirements from 1 July 2025).
• From 1 October 2025: free parking with a GPK is no longer generally available on permit-holder or paid public parking unless you use Parkeren Plus. Free parking on general disabled bays remains the exception.

When in doubt, check the exact wording on the bay/zone sign (general disabled vs. other disabled spaces) before you leave the car.
