Many tracks leading to ...

Welcome to Hengelo, the industrial city of Twente. When you arrive by train you are in the heart of the city. By car Hengelo is easy reached via the A1 highway exit 30. There are also exits from the the A35 highway (leading to the neighbouring town of Enschede) to Delden, Haaksbergen and the Hengelo-Zuid industrial area. At the A1 direction Oldenzaal and Germany there is another exit (31) leading to the Hasseler Es, Deurningen and Twente Airport.
