Exploring the Netherlands' Veluwe region by bike this autumn

The Veluwe, a forest-rich ridge stretching 37 miles through the Netherlands, offers heathland, sand dunes and pine forests. Its Hoge Veluwe National Park, about 90 minutes from Amsterdam, spans 5,400 hectares with 40km of cycle paths and around 2,000 free white bikes for visitors. The region also features palatial houses, a sculpture garden and a museum filled with Van Goghs.
