Arnhem is a lively city in eastern Netherlands, perfectly positioned for car excursions along the Rhine and into the surrounding landscape. From the city center, you can reach the historic battlefield of Arnhem, known from World War II and the film "A Bridge Too Far," in just a few minutes' drive. Take the A12 motorway west toward Utrecht, approximately 60 kilometers away, or drive east along the A12 into the scenic Gelderland region with its open fields and medieval villages.

Hoge Veluwe National Park, with the famous Kröller-Müller Museum and its outstanding collection of Van Gogh paintings, is just two miles north of the city via road N304. The summer months are ideal for exploring the region, when the countryside is at its greenest and the many cycling and hiking trails along the river valleys attract visitors from all over Europe.
