Ede

Tucked along the southern edge of the Veluwe, Ede is a place whose character is shaped by the heath, woodland and sandy soils of this extensive Dutch upland. The town sits in Gelderland amid a changing pattern of forest, farmland and open heath rather than the canal-and-polder scenery often associated with the Netherlands. Ginkelse Heide, west of Ede, was a landing area for Allied airborne troops during Operation Market Garden in September 1944, and local commemorations preserve the memory of that wartime event. Ede’s rail links and proximity to Wageningen also make it a useful starting point for exploring central Gelderland at a measured pace.
