Why hire a campervan or motorhome in Gelderland

Gelderland — a region worth exploring

Gelderland is the largest province in the Netherlands by land area, stretching across 5,136 square kilometres of forests, river landscapes, and rolling heathlands. The Hoge Veluwe National Park, one of the country's biggest nature reserves, sits at its heart and is home to the Kröller-Müller Museum, which houses the second-largest Van Gogh collection in the world. From the historic city of Arnhem — known for its pivotal role in Operation Market Garden — to the Hanseatic trading town of Zutphen, roughly 30 km to the east, the province is packed with character. Head south and you will find the Betuwe region, where the rivers Waal and Rhine wind through orchards and polders, while the Achterhoek in the east offers quiet lanes and traditional farmsteads ideal for slow-paced touring. The distance from Nijmegen in the south to Harderwijk on the Veluwemeer in the north is about 75 km, making Gelderland easy to explore at your own pace. Well-maintained provincial roads and plentiful campervan service points mean you can travel comfortably in either a compact campervan or a larger motorhome. Through Yescapa's peer-to-peer platform, you can hire directly from local owners across Gelderland, choosing from a wide range of vehicles that suit your group size and travel style.

Best time to visit

Late spring through early autumn is the prime window for a campervan trip in Gelderland. The Fruit Blossom Festival in the Betuwe takes place each April, when orchards burst into colour across the river landscape. Summer brings long daylight hours and full campsite facilities, while September's Airborne Commemorations in Arnhem draw visitors from across Europe. Yescapa's peer-to-peer model often means more competitive hire prices outside July and August, so booking a motorhome in May, June, or September can be excellent value. Whichever month you choose, Gelderland's sheltered woodland campsites make for a comfortable stay.
