Rivers and Veluwe Tour
Holland-Cycling.com is an internet guide to cycling in Holland. We do not organise cycling holidays ourselves. To help you on your way, we made a selection of the most popular cycling holidays offered by Dutch tour operators. The information on this page is provided by the tour operator.
The Veluwe region boasts two National Parks; a top-class modern art museum in the middle of a forest; wonderful natural scenery and pastoral countryside; and Airborne Museum “Hartenstein” dedicated to the Battle of Arnhem in 1944.

Start just south of the Veluwe in the Netherlands’ oldest town and set off through an enchanting river landscape, past castles and country estates. We will send you criss-cross through the Veluwe, a Natura 2000 area, marked by farmland, woodland, heathland and drifting sands. Come in August-September to fully appreciate the beauty of flowering heather fields.
In Arnhem and Nijmegen you will visit places where Allied soldiers fought to seize bridges crucial to Operation Market Garden. Find out all about the Battle of Arnhem at the museum in Oosterbeek.
Another highlight of this cycling holiday is a visit to Kröller-Müller Museum for modern art in the middle of the woods in Hoge Veluwe National Park. It boasts the largest Van Gogh collection outside of Amsterdam.
Van der Valk is a well-known hotel chain in the Netherlands. On this holiday you will stay at three top-class Van der Valk hotels that all bid cyclists a warm welcome.
We also offer this trip as a 7-day holiday, with extra roundtours.
