Nijmegen
Nijmegen sits on the Waal near the German border. Its long urban history and expansion across the river give it two distinct geographical perspectives.

Keep exploring Netherlands with our travel partners.
The Waal provides the clearest way to orient a visit to Nijmegen. The city’s municipality extends north of the river into Waalsprong and Lent, while former villages such as Hatert, Hees and Neerbosch became part of its urban area. Nearby Arnhem offers another reference point for exploring Gelderland.
What to look for
Lent and the Waalsprong expansion lie north of the Waal.
Useful to know
Distinguish the main city from Lent and Waalsprong when choosing where to spend time along the Waal.
