Nationaal Park De Hoge Veluwe is a national park located in the central Netherlands, near the city of Arnhem. It covers an area of approximately 55 square kilometers and is one of the largest and most diverse natural parks in the country. The park is famous for its rolling hills, sand dunes, heathlands, forests, and wildlife, including red deer, wild boar, foxes, badgers, and various bird species.
The park was established in 1935 by the wealthy couple, Anton and Helene Kröller-Müller, who had a passion for nature and art. They commissioned the famous Dutch architect, Hendrik Petrus Berlage, to design the park's infrastructure, including a visitor center, museums, and a network of hiking and cycling trails.
Today, visitors to the park can explore the diverse landscapes and wildlife by foot, bike, or car. There are several cycling and hiking trails of varying lengths and difficulties, including a 40-kilometer cycle route that passes through the park's highlights. In addition to nature, the park is also home to several art museums, including the Kröller-Müller Museum, which houses an extensive collection of works by Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, and other famous artists.
