Walking and cycling distances on the street network, measured and rounded. They are not tram times.
From Sarphatipark, in the middle of De Pijp, a measured ride is 3.7 km and about 20 minutes by bike: Ceintuurbaan, Beethovenstraat, then Gustav Mahlerlaan and De Boelelaan to Arent Janszoon Ernststraat. On foot that is about 50 minutes. From De Pijp metro station the ride is 3.4 km, about 16 minutes, leaving via Ferdinand Bolstraat. Walking from the station is about 45 minutes.
If you are not on a bike, take the metro from De Pijp to Amsterdam Zuid and walk the last 1.1 km, about 15 minutes, south across Gustav Mahlerplein. Gelderlandplein lists metro 50, 51 and 52 into Amsterdam Zuid. We are not assigning a line number to the De Pijp platform beyond “the metro between the two stations”. Cycling injuries are a common reason people come from this neighbourhood. There is a separate note on preventing cycling injuries.
The neighbourhood sends us knees from the bike, shoulders from a laptop on a small table, and backs that have been standing at work.
