Hi ! I'm staying in Hilversum for a while and I want to see the Kroller - Muller Museum near Arnhem... How can I get to Arnhem by public transport and then... how can I reach the Hoge Veluwe National Park with the Kroller - Muller Museum?

I think the most easiest way to reach the Kroller Muller Museum is:
- by train Hilversum - Apeldoorn; returm ticket euro 16,50.
http://www.ns.nl/servlet/Satellite?cid=1075985690180&pagename=www.ns.nl%2FPage%2FSuperHomepageEnglish&lang=en&c=Page
- by public bus from Apeldoorn railway/busstation:
first Apeldoorn - Hoenderloo (line 108s), change busses in Hoenderloo (line 106) to Otterlo and the Museum (4 minutes to walk);
or public bus Apeldoorn - Otterlo Rotonde (line 108) and walk for about 20 minutes to the museum.
http://www.bba.nl/uploadConnex/28005/Dienstregeling%20maandag%20tm%20vrijdag.pdf (line 106 from Hoenderloo to Otterlo; line 108s Apeldoorn - Ede)

hope you enjoy your visit
Jaap

and aren't there any busses from Hilversum streight to the National Park and since I'm going to see also Arnhem, not Apeldorn, there must be some buses from Arnhen Centraal Station to the High Viel National Park (I guess, that's the translation of the name :) ) with the Kroller Muller Museum and agaim if U please give me some approximate prices for buss tickets ...
Thank You !

There is also a public bus from Arnhem to Otterlo Centrum line 105s; you can walk from there to the Museum (20 - 25 minutes) or change busses in Otterlo on line 106 to the museum.

Arnhem - Otterlo: http://www.veolia-transport.nl/ConnexTemplates/TimeTablePage.aspx?id=21888&Show=linefolder&LineId=838&DireCode=2&Date=14-12-2006

Otterlo - Hoenderloo: http://www.veolia-transport.nl/ConnexTemplates/TimeTablePage.aspx?id=21888&Show=linefolder&LineId=902&DireCode=1&Date=14-12-2006

Till yet I can not find the price. We do have in the Netherlands a so called 'strippenkaart'. And depending on the distance between two destinations you have to pay with two or more 'strippen'. Sorry but the website doesn't have info about these. Suppose it will be between 5 and 10 euro.
