The Ginkelse heide is a beautiful nature reserve located in the Dutch province of Gelderland. With its vast moors, forest areas and sand drifts, it offers a breathtaking landscape for nature lovers. The heath is best known for its rich flora and fauna, including rare plant species and various bird species. Moreover, the Ginkelse heide has a historical significance as a landing zone during the Second World War. Every year, the commemoration of the Battle of Arnhem takes place here, when paratroopers land on the heath.

The cycle path is well developed like many here. The sandy road right next to it is popular with mountain bikers and is passable except for heavy rain.
