Hiking

The 4Daagse of Nijmegen

Four days, four distances, one shared goal: The 4Daagse in Nijmegen is one of the biggest and most famous walking events in the world. Every year, around 45,000 people take on the challenge together – walking 30, 40 or 50 kilometres per day. It’s not just about covering ground, but also about pushing your own limits.

4 days, one challenge, lots of fun!

This event is more than a physical challenge. It brings together people of all ages, backgrounds and fitness levels. Everyone who joins in feels the unique energy along the route – driven by the support of the crowd, the encouragement from fellow walkers and the sense of being part of something special.

Preparation is key

Your 4Daagse journey starts long before day one. If you plan to be on your feet for hours every day, you need to know your body and train it properly. Joints, muscles and endurance are put to the test – tired feet, tight calves and shaky knees are common. 

To make it through all four days, regular training, smart rest breaks and the right gear are essential. Many participants rely on targeted support – like our Outdoor Knee Support or Outdoor Merino Compression Socks.

Every step matters

Four days that ask everything from you: focus, stamina and body awareness. The 4Daagse is an experience you’ll never forget – because it shows what your body can do. If you’re well prepared and take care of yourself, you’ll return home with more than just a medal.

Numerous participants pass a rest stop during the 4Daagse walk. A large banner above them reads "KWBN 4DAAGSE RUSTPOST."
