The geographic center of the Netherlands. Easy to recognize by the large stone. You also have plenty of opportunities here to sit down for a break.

Center of the Netherlands Marker

Highlight • Monument

As can be clearly seen in the photo, this is NOT the centre of the Netherlands. The geographical centre on the Goudsberg is (as indicated) 2.65 km away. The centre of gravity is a little further north in the Speulderbos.

Koeweg Forest Path, Veluwe

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Along the Koeweg you will find a piece of old forest area with tall pine trees. On a sunny day, this forest plot is even more beautiful with the filtered sunlight.
