Hiking paradise

The Netherlands has a reputation for being boring for hikers since it is flat, cow-filled, and generally uninteresting. Right? And let’s not even mention all that rain. It turns out, though, that hiking in the Netherlands is not only feasible but also provides some very breathtaking scenery. This thing is one of the reasons to visit Netherlands.

There are many fantastic hiking paths in Hoge Veluwe National Park. The park is lined with numerous paths that have been clearly marked, as well as some of the Dutch long-distance trails like Veluwe Zwerfpad. The defined paths are largely located in the park's northern section, close to the visitor's center and the entrances near Hoenderloo and Otterlo. One of the most popular areas for trekking is close to Deelense Veld, where you can discover little ponds and the walking area De Pollen in the center of Hoge Veluwe. You can hike along different parts of the Veluwe Zwerfpad, including the Otterlo-Arnhem and Hoenderloo-Arnhem routes.
