How Does It Work?
Via THIS LINK you will re-direct to TripAdvisor where you can purchase the selfguided Battle of of Arnhem route. NOTE: Once payment is complete, I will send you the PDF with the route via WhatsApp; this may take up to one day. I will do my best to send the route as quickly as possible, but I am not online 24/7, so please do not make your purchase on the day you plan to walk the route—do so at least one day in advance.
The PDF with the route describes the route in words, but it also contains links to Google Maps, in case it isn’t entirely clear. You can print the PDF, but then the links will of course no longer work (we received this question before, which is why I am mentioning it now).
If anything is unclear about the route, please let me know. Feedback so we can improve the route is always welcome!
