Posbank, Natural heathland in Veluwe region, Netherlands

The Posbank contains extensive heather fields stretching across rolling hills, offering panoramic views of the surrounding Veluwe landscape and woodlands.

The establishment of National Park Veluwezoom in 1930 incorporated Posbank as a protected natural area, marking a milestone in Dutch conservation efforts.

The purple heather fields of Posbank have influenced numerous Dutch painters and photographers who capture the changing colors throughout the seasons.

Visitors can access multiple marked trails for hiking and cycling, with designated parking areas and information centers located at the main entrance points.

The elevation changes at Posbank create a rare Dutch landscape formation, reaching heights that provide views extending to the German border on clear days.
