Veluwezoom
Perfect for walking and cycling, Veluwezoom is the southern part of Veluwe, where the woody and hilly countryside changes into a river landscape. In May and June this area is at its best because of the many flowering rhododendrons.
Historical
Veluwezoom, the beautiful area between Renkum and
Laag-Soeren, has of old boasted many tourist attractions and a rich cultural
past.
In Renkum the memory of the Battle for Arnhem is still very much part
of the present. A commemoration takes place every year in the weekend around
September 17th. The Airborne Museum gives you some idea of what happened back
then.
Active
Rheden is an ideal place for walkers and cyclists because of the
Rheden Four-Day Cycling Event and Veluwezoom National Park. Walking around
Loenermarkt you are likely to come across a flock of sheep.
The smallest
town in the Netherlands is situated in Veluwezoom (only the islands of Vlieland
and Schiermonnikoog are smaller). In 2004 Rozendaal was voted greenest village
in Europe. The village is known for Rosendael Castle.
Veluwezoom – a region
that will suit all tastes!
