The Veluwemeer (Dutch) or Lake Veluwe is a
bordering lake in the
Netherlands, between the
provinces of
Flevoland on the west side and
Gelderland on the east side. It is a narrow lake that stretches from south-west to north-east. South of
Harderwijk the lake becomes het
Wolderwijd and North of
Elburg het Drontermeer.
The name of the lake comes from the
Veluwe region in Gelderland of which the lake is on the western boundary. The lake is not natural and is one of several lakes known as the
Randmeren formed in 1957 when the
Flevopolder was created. It has a surface area of over 30 square kilometres and is fairly shallow with an average depth of 1.55 m. It is popular amongst tourists during the summer for recreation on the water or
beach.
