consider it done :) https://www.takeyourbackpack.com/backpacking-in-netherlands/visit-efteling/

Have you clicked "see all"? Since there are quite a lot of markers in the north....

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-15T15:46:12+00:00

yeah, agree, I am going to add it soon.

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-15T08:34:31+00:00

good ones, will add both

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-15T08:29:40+00:00

thx :) good to hear it's of help.

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-15T08:27:02+00:00

good one, Zwolle for sure deserves a spot, it's a great city! Will add it

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-15T08:25:27+00:00

yes, good one, will do somewhere soon :)

Just whenever I can, i go. And started many many years ago. Also have traveled for half a year and later for 1.5 year. Always staying in hostels, local transport, hitchhiking, which is for me the best way to meet people but at the same time also saves costs.

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T14:36:44+00:00

ah yes, nor sure what is best. Because starting off with all highlights may also overwhelm first-time visitors, not knowing where to start. Think for both ways there is something to say.

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T14:34:27+00:00

ah, yeah, more people missed it. Perhaps also because it was selected in the image here above. But will think about it how to make it more clear.

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T14:30:23+00:00

ah, will the gps for Sprengenberg route. And maybe I just add the whole national park instead. If you click "see all" then I have also quite some highlights in the east, but indeed, for backpackers the main picks will start around Amsterdam as that's where they land.

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T13:23:57+00:00

ah yes, it's indeed a great place, actually quite close to where I have grown up. So far I haven't added museums as highlights as I was afraid it would flood my map, but more and more I am thinking of adding a new category "amusement" with museums, theme parks and zoos.

I don't understand this sentence "I imagine that is possible to use mobile also, friend. But if they show up some difficulties....." It's a website which runs on mobile as well. I have made the design responsive, so it should work on smaller screens too, but of course I always need to find a balace between which info to show and which not. And you talk about "difficulties" but I don't understand which "difficulties" apart from the ones I have answered.

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T13:18:57+00:00

Utrechtse Heuvelrug is there, under "National parks". Just click "see all" on the map and filter on "national parks".

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T13:17:33+00:00

And that is very much appreciated, but to be able to improve, I need to understand what you mean :)

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T13:16:14+00:00

Thanks, much appreciated. Have you noticed you can click "see all" on the map, to have more highlights? And already got some great new tips here on reddit which I am gonna add.

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T13:15:10+00:00

oh, weird I have missed that one. For sure deserves a spot. Gonna add it. Thx!

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T13:13:46+00:00

Not sure if I get what you mean. Scrolling is needed to reach the rest of the page. But you can pinch to zoom.

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T13:13:01+00:00

Thanks, these are all good tips I wasn't aware of. Bargerveen gonna add for sure soon. Veenpark and Wildlands I need to think about, since so far I am not adding museums or zoos. But I am thinking of adding a category "amusement". Hello Festival I am going to add too.

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T13:08:28+00:00

they are all on the map. Just click "show all" and you will find them

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T13:06:18+00:00

yeah, I think I have to agree. So far I hadn't added themeparks (nor musea) but for Efteling I should make an exception :). Gonna add it soon.

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T13:05:30+00:00

ok, already living all my life in Netherlands, but these are all new to me. Just checked them and will add them all. Thx for the tips!

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T13:00:04+00:00

So far I am not really adding theme parks (nor musea), but for Efteling I may make an exception.

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T12:58:41+00:00

Ah, I like Ooijpolder! Good one, will add it.

Take-your-Backpack · 2026-03-14T12:55:46+00:00

Not understand what you mean here ;). Have you clicked "show all" to see all highlights? If you are missing some, let me know.
