Horse back riding

Have you heard about the Veluwe Trail? The Veluwe Trail is the best known long distance route for horseback riders and wagon/carriage drivers. The route takes you through one of the most beautiful natural landscapes in the Netherlands: de Veluwe, with vast woods and heather fields, alternated with farm land and sand drifts. Occasionally the route follows a section of public road, but for the most part it includes only unpaved dirt roads.

Water sports

Surfing is available on Horst beach, as well as sailing, swimming, diving or even wakeboarding (at Kievitsveld)!

Bicycling/mountain biking

Hit the trails on your bike…feel the wind in your hair as you bike through the forest. Use the bicycle route network to plan your itinerary.  

Walking/hiking/Nordic walking

The best way to explore the Veluwe is on foot. Highly recommended!

You also make some beautiful GPS tours or join the forest ranger to learn more about the woods.

Golf/pitch and put

Golf is fun everybody! A perfect combination of being outside and staying active. Challenge your opponents to a fun and friendly game. Golf is no longer an elite sport. Everybody can play! There are several golf courses on the Veluwe. Are you a beginner? Then try a golf clinic: we are sure you will get the hang of it!

Edda Huzid in Voorthuizen has a great golf course.

Recreation areas Bussloo, Heerderstrand, Strand Horst and Zeumeren (see map) offer beautiful Pitch & Putt courses.
