The Hague Maps and Orientation
(The Hague / Den Haag, South Holland, Netherlands, NL)



The Hague is referred to on many Dutch maps as 'Den Haag' and is a sprawling city and located on the western side of the Netherlands, in the region on South Holland (Zuid Holland). Close to the heart of the city, The Hague's Centraal Station (CS) is an important transport hub and this busy railway station is easy to find.

The other train station in The Hague is the Hollands Spoor Station (HS) and this is located further south, being just over 1 km / 0.5 miles from the city centre itself. Most of the streets that head in a westerly direction reach the Scheveningen resort area and its sandy beachfront, which is graced by a long pier, a lighthouse and also a scenic esplanade.
