De 4Daagse : distances and walking details
De 4Daagse is a four‑day walking event based in Nijmegen and its surrounding Waalstad region with mixed urban and forested terrain. Each registered participant must walk the same distance on all four days and meet the event's reglementary distance requirement.
Distances available
- 30 km
- 40 km
- 50 km
The reglementary (minimum) distance depends on age and gender. Some age groups must register for a specified distance; other groups may choose a higher distance as a choice distance. Participants cannot switch to a different distance once the event has started. It is possible to change the registered distance during the official registration days at the Servicedesk for a fee of €16,50, provided the new distance is at least the reglementary distance.
Rules note that male military participants have a different reglementary requirement and a specific baggage rule applies to them. The route varies each day with a different town as focal point and passes through forested and rural sections around Nijmegen. Practical information such as toilets, medical support, massage points, food and transport options are listed under the event's practical sections for participants to consult before the walk.
