Allowing hikers to enjoy the best that the Veluwe has to offer for four days. That is the goal of the Stichting Internationale Vierdaagse Apeldoorn. Since 1954, the 4Daagse Apeldoorn, which always starts on the second Tuesday in July, has been a well-known event among walkers in the Netherlands. Forests and heathlands, but especially the smaller scale character of the event, are reasons for our participants to come to Apeldoorn. The organization is entirely in the hands of our volunteers, and they do a great job. They provide the right personal touch and approach. It is no wonder that a large majority of participants rated the 4Daagse Apeldoorn with a score of 8 or higher in a survey. Tens of thousands of walkers have enjoyed walking in Apeldoorn and the surrounding area over the years, making our event an important foundation for walking sports in the Netherlands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To keep our organization at the right level and continue to serve everyone well, we are always looking for the right volunteer(s). Maybe you are the one?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The start of our four-day event is always on the second Tuesday in July and lasts until Friday. Start times are from 6:30 AM to 11:30 AM each walking day, depending on the distance. The start is from the sports complex of v.v. Victoria Boys, Berghuizerweg 153, 7312 SN Apeldoorn. The weekend before the four-day event, the site is set up, and the tents are arranged. We are still looking for extra people for this setup. On the walking days, Tuesday through Friday, we need a lot of manpower for various tasks along the routes. There are also daily tasks to be done on the site. For clearing and storing items after the walking event, we are looking for people for that Friday afternoon and Saturday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
