Plan your visit

The museum is located in the heart of De Hoge Veluwe National Park. The moment you enter the national park, life takes on a different pace. Take time for nature and hop on a free White Bicycle or take a walk. Getting away from all the stress will then create space in your head to enjoy the art at the museum even more. Read more about walking and cycling routes. Wondering how long it will take you to get to the museum? Read more about the route to the museum.

A visit to the museum and park requires more time than you might expect. For the museum and sculpture garden, you will need at least 3 hours. Want to relax in between? Enjoy the peace in the sculpture garden or join one of the activities in De Hoge Veluwe National Park. This will make your visit a complete day out!

Wondering what's on at the museum? Then check out our calendar. You can hear the most wonderful stories to accompany the works of art in an audio tour or guided tour. The sculpture garden is a size of more than 25 football pitches, and you will find over 200 sculptures by modern artists. Visiting with the family? Take a look at our family activities

The museum is located in the middle of the De Hoge Veluwe National Park. To get to the museum, you will therefore also need a ticket for the park. The Museum Pass and the VriendenLoterij VIP card are valid in the museum, but not in the park. Convenient: with an online ticket, you have priority at the entrance to the park on busy days. If you wish to enter the park by car, then don't forget to buy a ticket for your car as well. 

The museum is easily accessible by car and public transport. The park has three entrances: Otterlo, Hoenderloo and Schaarsbergen.

The museum is easily accessible by wheelchair or mobility scooter. There are also wheelchairs and walkers for loan. You can also pick up large-print texts and a ‘museum pictocard’ at the entrance.

You can leave large bags and belongings in the cloakroom or use a locker. Backpacks can be handed in or carried on your stomach.

Some works in the sculpture garden are covered, temporarily removed or inaccessible during the winter period (from 1 November to 1 April). This is done for safety reasons, and to protect the works from the elements. These works include Floating Sculpture, Otterlo by Marta Pan, Jardin d'émail by Jean Dubuffet and Needle Tower by Kenneth Snelson.
