International Four Days Marches Apeldoorn

70th edition Cantharel International Four Days Marches Apeldoorn

Celebrate the 70th edition of the 4Daagse Apeldoorn from Tuesday, July 8 to Friday, July 11, 2025. This year, we are set to make it a splendid event, characterized by the beautiful nature and the friendly and cozy atmosphere. Our volunteers, who are responsible for organizing the entire event, can’t wait to welcome you again to the healthiest city in the Netherlands.

Routes

Tens of thousands of walkers have previously enjoyed the routes through the unique Veluwe nature: the beautiful forests, heathlands, sand drifts, and springs. The routes also pass through picturesque Veluwe villages and Veluwe gems such as Stadspark Berg & Bos, the palace park of Kroondomein Het Loo, and Paleis Het Loo.

For everyone

Whether you’re a seasoned sports hiker or a recreational hiker, you can tailor your own walking trip. Choose from distances of 12, 20, 30, and 40 km and decide for yourself whether you want to walk one, two, three, or four days. Whether you’re aiming for an achievement or walking for pleasure, health, or new social contacts: everyone is welcome.

One-time Special Jubilee Route 2025

On Saturday, July 12, after our 70th edition, there will be an extra walking day through the center of Apeldoorn. This route, approximately eight kilometers long, will pass various highlights and parks, maintaining the green character of our event. Further details are currently being worked out and will be announced in January.
This route celebrates three jubilees: the 70th edition of the 4Daagse Apeldoorn, 80 years of Apeldoorn’s liberation, and the 80th anniversary of v.v. Victoria Boys.
