Why plan ahead at Camping de Wildhoeve?

Camping de Wildhoeve is a family campsite on the Veluwe that blends comfort with nature‑first adventure. Every camping pitch is a comfort pitch with an individual water tap and drain, CAI television connection, 8‑amp electricity, and campsite‑wide WiFi. The grounds are car‑free—you park in the central lot and use handcarts at the barrier for luggage and groceries—creating a relaxed, child‑friendly atmosphere.

On site, you’ll find:

• Multiple swimming pools, including a heated swimming paradise
• An outdoor water playground for children
• The brand‑new indoor playground “De Dassenburcht” (expected opening summer 2026)
• A tennis court, BMX track, and jeu‑de‑boules lane
• Brasserie de Houtvesterij for food and drinks
• Reception & shop for essentials and assistance
• Four Shell Recharge electric car charging stations

Nature and nearby outings are a highlight. Step straight from the campsite into the forests of the Veluwe; you can begin walking routes through Koninklijke Houtvesterij Het Loo right outside the grounds. Rent bicycles on site and connect directly to the regional cycling network. Within roughly 30 minutes you can reach the theme parks Julianatoren and Walibi, enjoy Apeldoorn, visit Elburg, explore Hanseatic towns, or drop into local museums.

Practical extras: one additional small tent up to 5 m² is permitted per pitch; pets are not allowed. Free WiFi is available (networks: Wildhoeve 1, 2 or 3) for general use. The new season opens on 27 March 2026.

Tool 1 — Wildhoeve’s 360° virtual tour: what it shows and how to use it

Wildhoeve’s 360° virtual tour lets you explore pitches, facilities, and the surroundings online before you book. It’s the quickest way to understand the layout and atmosphere of different areas across the campsite and to visualize walking distances to pools, play zones, and sports facilities.

Use the tour to:

• Get a feel for each camping field’s setting before you choose a pitch
• Preview the vicinity of key facilities like swimming pools, the water playground, and sports courts
• Orient yourself for quick access to Brasserie de Houtvesterij and the Reception & shop
• Picture how you’ll move around a car‑free site from the central parking area

Featured‑snippet answer: How do I use Wildhoeve’s 360° virtual tour?

• Open the interactive 360° tour on the website.
• Pan and zoom to look around each location.
• Move between viewpoints to compare pitches and see nearby facilities.
• Note walking routes you’ll use most (pools, playgrounds, sanitary buildings, reception).

Tip: Pair the virtual tour with the campsite map to confirm exact positions and plan your daily routes.

Tool 2 — The campsite map (Plattegrond): your layout at a glance

The detailed campsite map (Plattegrond) is available to view or download. Use it to pinpoint essentials and plan your stay with precision.

What to locate on the map:

• Swimming pools (including the heated swimming paradise) and the water playground
• Sanitary buildings and children’s facilities
• Brasserie de Houtvesterij and the Reception & shop
• Tennis court, BMX track, and jeu‑de‑boules lane
• Playgrounds by camping field
• Central parking (car‑free site logistics)
• Electric car charging points (Shell Recharge)
• Bicycle rental and links to the cycling network

Featured‑snippet answer: Where can I get the campsite map?

You can view and download the campsite map (Plattegrond) on the website. A digital brochure is also available for pre‑arrival planning.

Tool 3 — The digital brochure: inspiration in one file

The digital brochure is ideal for a complete overview of camping and rental options, facilities, and on‑site activities. It complements the tour and map with clear, curated information you can share with your travel group when comparing stays like the Astro Mobile Home (4 persons), Safaritent (6 persons), Artcamp (5 persons), Boshuis, Boshut, or Bostent—all pre‑set at the campsite so you can arrive travel‑light.

Choose the right pitch with confidence

Because all Wildhoeve pitches are comfort pitches, your base setup is sorted: 8‑amp electricity, individual water tap and drain, CAI TV connection, and WiFi. From there, use the 360° tour and map to weigh what matters most:

• Easy reach to pools or the water playground for multiple daily visits
• Nearness to sports like the tennis court, BMX track, or jeu‑de‑boules
• Convenient access to sanitary buildings for morning and evening routines
• Quick routes to the Reception & shop and Brasserie de Houtvesterij

Remember the car‑free setup: after unloading, you’ll park in the central lot and use handcarts at the barrier for luggage and groceries. If you plan to pitch an extra small tent (up to 5 m²), factor that into your layout when short‑listing pitch locations on the map.

Plan your activities before you arrive

Use the map and tour to coordinate days around your interests:

• Water time, anytime: multiple pools and a heated swimming paradise for all‑weather fun; children can splash at the outdoor water playground. On bad‑weather days, the heated swimming paradise is a reliable fallback, and from summer 2026, the indoor playground “De Dassenburcht” adds sheltered play.

• Nature discovery: start walks directly from the campsite into Koninklijke Houtvesterij Het Loo. Join guided activities such as wildlife tracking, wild‑boar treasure hunts, and nature discovery tours led by a nature guide. Kids can follow the year‑round quest “Discover the Little Wonders”; during every official school holiday there’s a full recreation programme.

• Cycling made easy: rent bicycles on site and roll straight onto the regional cycling network. The campsite also shares its own suggested routes.

• Day trips within roughly 30 minutes: go to Julianatoren or Walibi, spend a day in Apeldoorn, visit Elburg, explore Hanseatic towns, or check out local museums.

• On‑site dining and downtime: map your mealtimes and meet‑ups at Brasserie de Houtvesterij so the group always knows a central point to gather.

Wildhoeve’s recognition by ANWB and ADAC, its ACSI Award 2023, membership of Leading Campings, and Green Key sustainability certification underline the quality you’ll experience once you’re here.
