There are no connections to any water nearby, however, there also is a direct road connection to the city of Wageningen which hosts a small industrial port on the river Rijn and a direct road and rail connection to the city of Arn- hem, which features a larger port at a greater distance. The environment is clean and green due to the fact that Ede is partly built in a wooded area and partly on the central Dutch plains in the national park called Nationaal Park “De Hoge Veluwe”. Socially, Ede is a common city like any other in the Netherlands. Each year, there is a municipality-wide ce- lebration called Heideweek (Week of the heather) which lasts a week and largely involves traditional Dutch festivities, along with local customs. Earlier in the year the Heather Queen and the Heather Princess of the heather are elected from several candidates and will be the representative for the municipality of Ede on various other festivities, until the following year when another a new queen and princess are elected. Ede is situated along the A12 motorway and has a direct link to the A1 via the A30. There are two stations in Ede: Ede-Wageningen train station and Ede Centrum train station. Ede-Wageningen is the main station Park de Hoge Veluwe with services to Alkmaar, Amersfoort, Amsterdam, Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, Arnhem, Barneveld, Den Helder and Utrecht. Ede Centrum has train services from Amersfoort and Barneveld to Ede-Wageningen. Ede city center Where to eat in Ede?

  • 2 National Park De Hoge Veluwe Programme WSC 2017.Pdf
    PROGRAMME FOR EXCURSION NR. 2 Excursion to the National Park Hoge Veluwe National Park Hoge Veluwe is a relict from glaciers that covered the Netherlands during Saalien (2 104 – 1.2 104 years ago). It is a large complex of ice-pushed ridges with an elevation up to 110 m+NAP. Excess rainwater can infiltrate in the sandy soil and feeds the underlying aquifer. This groundwater rises to the surface in springs and brooks in the surrounding area. In this excursion the geology and related water management of the region will be shown. The excursion will start on top of an ice-pushed ridge with an overview to the adjacent river landscape. Then we will visit an old mill-brook, which is fed by Veluwe water, and some of the upper branches of this brook (manmade springs). This field trip is followed by a visit in the afternoon to the National Park Hoge Veluwe and the Kröller Muller Museum which hosts many famous paintings of Dutch masters such as Van Gogh. De Hoge Veluwe National Park is the largest actively managed conservation area in private hands in the Netherlands. The Park covers 5,400 hectares of woodland, heathland, peat bogs and drift sand. It enjoys a wide variety of plants and animals and provides habitats to extremely rare Red List species. You have the possibility to bicycle on free bikes or walk in the park by yourself or enjoy a visit to the Kröller-Müller museum on your own. This trip will leave by bus at the Hof van Wageningen on 08.30 hrs and return around 17.30 hours.

  • DE HOGE VELUWE the Green Tr EASU R E O F T H E Netherlands
    DE PIED EN CAP & BELEEF HET VERLEDEN, in association with PARIS ART DECO SOCIETY present “A few days like no others” in the Netherlands, DE HOGE VELUWE THE GrEEN Tr EASU r E o f T H E Netherlands F r i d ay 1 6 t h , Saturday 17 t h & Sunday 18 t h o f Ju n e 2 0 1 7 RADIO KOOTWIJK, JACHTHUIS SINT HUBERTUS KROLLER-MULLER Museum DE HOGE VELUWE NATIONAL PARK This year, we have decided to bring you to a place you most probably have never thought about as a destination, or even heard of, if you are not Dutch. One of the most amazing areas of Gelderland (Gueldre), De Hoge Veluwe is a beautiful wild park but it is also synonymous with the three main art deco/modern buildings we want you to discover: Radio Kootwijk (De Katherdraal, if you speak local), Jachthuis Sint Hubertus and the Kröller-Müller Museum. We try and have a mix of participant nationalities during our events, hence this document written in English. It is the reason why all our Dutch friends are invited (even with their bikes) to join us with Belgians, French and British friends. And if we get a few more great people from Germany, that will be brilliant! The border is nearby, after all. Why is our signature: “like no others”? We have got a few ideas that should prove to you that indeed, time with us is not quite the ‘usual stuff’. We have danced tango to the music of the organ on the scene of Cinema Tuchinski, have taken a seabath in Deauville on a private beach accompanied by a little orchestra, have almost taken a nap, comfortably seated for digestion in Theatre des Champs-Elysées.

  • Case Study Title and # (Heading 2)
    NETHERLANDS - INTEGRATED PLANNING FOR THE VELUWE RANDMEREN REGION. CASE # 89 ABSTRACT Description With the construction of the Afsluitdijk (IJsselmeer dam) in 1932, the Zuyderzee in the Netherlands was closed off from the sea. Over the years, the salinity of the newly formed lake declined. In the period 1956 – 1967, the polder Flevoland was constructed. After completion, four lakes, located between the polder and the “old land”, were formed. These four lakes are called the Veluwe Randmeren (Veluwe border lakes). In the 1960s and 1970s, it became clear that the discharge of phosphates and nitrates from agriculture and household use was having a negative impact on the water quality in the lakes. In 1986, a group consisting of national and local authorities undertook a project, which gradually increased the water quality. In the 1990s, the lake region started attracting more and more people, thus posing new threats to the sustainable development of the region. To balance the natural and recreational functions in and around the Veluwe border lakes, a coalition of 19 authorities, interest groups, industries and individuals, joined forces and agreed to work on an integrated planning project for the Veluwe Randmeren. Both the communication between all parties involved and the technical issues played an important role in this project. In total about 300 people helped define the problems in the Veluwe Randmeren. On the bases of the results of these meetings, experts defined strategies for the development of the region. One of these strategies has been elaborated into a regional plan, containing 36 measures. These will be executed within the period 2002 – 2010.

  • Kwartaalrapportage OV Loket 1 April 2013 – 30 Juni 2013
    Kwartaalrapportage OV loket 1 april 2013 – 30 juni 2013 1. Voorwoord De maanden april, mei en juni 2013 waren wat aantallen klachten betreft relatief rustig voor het OV loket. Er waren weinig calamiteiten of grote storingen. Goed nieuws voor de reizigers dus! In totaal registreerde het OV loket 1.159 klachten. Dat waren er aanzienlijk minder dan de 1.879 klachten die in het eerste kwartaal geregistreerd werden. Toen hadden we echter te maken met de directe gevolgen van de nieuwe dienstregeling (per december 2012) en met overlast als gevolg van het winterweer. Maar ook in vergelijking met dezelfde periode in 2012, toen er in het tweede kwartaal 1.208 klachten binnenkwamen, was het de afgelopen drie maanden iets rustiger. Opvallend in april, mei en juni 2013 is dat de meeste klachten binnenkwamen in de categorie ‘dienstuitvoering’. Voor het eerst sinds lange tijd is er meer geklaagd over vertragingen, uitval, aansluitingen en capaciteit dan over de OV-chipkaart (categorie Vervoerbewijs). Dit heeft twee redenen. Er waren veel klachten over volle treinen (categorie dienstuitvoering). De tweede reden is dat het aantal klachten over de OV-chipkaart (categorie vervoerbewijs) geleidelijk afneemt. De klachten die wij ontvingen gaan met name over de tarieven, de ingewikkelde procedures bij defecte kaarten en over het restitueren van reissaldo. In hoofdstuk drie leest u daar meer over. Uit deze rapportage blijkt ook dat NS deze keer in de hoek zit waar de klappen vallen. In dit tweede kwartaal waren er de bekende problemen rond de Fyra, maar wij ontvingen ook klachten over aansluitingen en volle treinen. Gelukkig is er dit kwartaal ook goed nieuws te melden.

  • De Veluwe Als Bron Van Veilig Drinkwater
    De Veluwe als bron van veilig drinkwater Inleiding Water is de bron van al het leven. Een mens kan maximaal vier dagen zonder drinkwater. Van oudsher zoeken mensen voor hun vestigingsplaats de aanwezig- heid van betrouwbaar drinkwater op. De Veluwe is al eeuwen in beeld als bron van goed en betrouwbaar drinkwater. Daar waar het Veluwewater aan de oppervlakte komt, aan de randen dus, heeft de mens zich dan ook gevestigd. Door de eeuwen heen is de bevolking gegroeid en ook de behoefte aan drinkwater per hoofd van de bevolking. Maar de Velu wse bron is niet onuitputtelijk. Naast het gebruik van dit kostbare water als drinkwater werden bijvoorbeeld ook de beken en sprengen, die gevoed worden met dit Ve- luwewater, gebruikt en ontwikkeld ten behoeve van allerlei andere menselijke activiteiten. In dit artikel ga ik in op het historische belang van de Veluwe voor de drinkwater- voorziening en kijk ik vooruit naar toekomstige ontwikkelingen voor het grondwa- ter en de drinkwaterwinningen op de Veluwe. Historie Tot het jaar 1850 werd in de drinkwaterbehoefte van mensen voorzien door het water te halen uit locale putten of nabijgelegen oppervlaktewater. Met name in de steden kwam hierbij de volksgezondheid in het geding door de vervuiling van dit water. Door besmettelijke ziektes als cholera en typhus was destijds de levens- duur van mensen beperkt. Er werden waterleidingsystemen aangelegd vanuit een schone bron tot in of nabij de huizen. De eerste drinkwaterleidingbedrijven zijn toen gesticht. In tabel 1 is een overzicht opgenomen van de start van drinkwaterwinningen door de steden rondom de Ve- luwe.

You will also discover Veluwezoom National Park where - from mid-August to mid-September - the heath will be at its most spectacular: This is the period when heather plants flower and a mauve blanket cloaks the heath. The rolling terrain, uncharacteristic for Holland, is much appreciated by the Dutch. Day to Day Day 1 Arrival Arnhem The starting point of this route is the big city of Arnhem, known for the Battle of Arnhem in WWII, part of Operation Market Garden. It boasts a marvelous zoo; beautiful Sonsbeek Park; and an open air museum of cultural history, to name but three of many points of interest.
