The Vierdaagsecamping is conveniently located just 20 minutes by bike from the start and finish (6.5 km), below you will find all information about our location.
The Vierdaagsecamping is just a 20-minute bike ride from the start/finish at the Wedren. We build the Campsite here once a year on a beautiful, vast meadow especially for the Four Days Marches. An excellent cycle path from the campsite along the Griftdijk takes you to “de Snelbinder”, the cycle bridge over the Waal that takes you to the center of Nijmegen. On “Elst Day” the Four Days Marches pass by just 1 km away from the camping. This is the ideal day to invite friends and family to come and watch! By booking a single overnight stay, visitors can also stay overnight.
Are you a supporter of one of the walkers and do not know what to do during the daytime? Check the website of Toeristen Informatie Nederland. Here you will find information about (cultural)hotspots and activities in the city of Nijmegen.
At the Citystore in Nijmegen at the Big Market Square you can receive more information about the real pearls of the city and get inspired by the stories about Nijmegen and surroundings. Moreover you can buy unique products in their store. The address is: Citystore Nijmegen | Grote Markt 17 | 6511 KA Nijmegen. On Monday and Tuesday they are closed, all other days of the week they are open between 10:00 am and 5:00 pm.
Directions
The campsite is located at the Griftdijk in Nijmegen.
Please note: before entering the campsite, you must first check in. The check-in location is at the "back entrance" of our campsite. Follow the signs and directions for 'check-in Vierdaagsecamping'. First, navigate to Garagebedrijf Zaat at Griftdijk 234 (Note: this is not the campsite address.). To the left of this address is a side street (indicated by a P-Carpool sign) that you can enter to reach the check-in.
Attention: If you are coming from the A15, continue to the roundabout just after the gas station, turn around at the roundabout, and drive back to the campsite. This way, you will approach from the correct side of the road, avoiding any dangerous traffic situations.
