The reception is located in the wooden cabin next to the restaurant. At the reception, you can ask any questions and purchase lunch packages, barbecue tickets, and blisterpasses (bus tickets). Our reception is open all day on arrival days (Saturday & Sunday). On other days, the reception is open during the following hours:
If the reception is closed, you can contact the restaurant staff or check the informationboards at the reception and sanitation facilities. During the night our night security can be found in the restaurant.
On the campsite, there is a restaurant with both an indoor and outdoor terrace. You have a wide selection of delicious and healthy meals, including vegetarian and vegan options, and we can accommodate various allergies. Every evening, there is a changing daily special. The restaurant is open from early morning until late at night. You can enjoy your meal in a cozy setting with fellow campers at the dining area or at your own campsite.
Snacks and fresh oven pizzas can be ordered from our 'Take Away' service at therestaurant. During the walking days, you can also order breakfast/lunch packages at the reception or at the bar.
On Friday, we will conclude with our 'Grand Smoker BBQ.' Prefer to order from the menu? You can do that on Friday as well.
We believe good and clean sanitary facilities are extremely important. That is why the facilities are spacious, covered and cleaned several times a day. The sanitary facilities are centrally located and quickly accessible from every camping pitch. There are plenty of toilets with toilet paper, showers with hot water and sinks with mirrors for a fresh start and a hot shower after the finish. There is also a disposal point for the chemical toilet and a separate place for washing dishes.
If you have a regular or small campsite with electricity, we will ensure that you are placed close to a power outlet. Please bring a power cable with a Schuko plug of at least 25 meters, so you’re always covered. It is important that the power connections are well-protected against water. Please note that you should not use more than 1300 watts at the same time. Electrical equipment must be suitable for camping use (i.e., no electric heaters). Also, kettles and hair dryers are often unsuitable for camping use and may cause short circuits. Tapping or splitting the power is, of course, not allowed.
For questions about massages, you can contact info@ngsmassage.nl. At our campsite, you will find masseurs from the Dutch Society for Sports Massage ready to assist you. They are available for injury prevention, help with minor ailments, and you can also schedule an appointment for a massage.
Costs for Massage and Tape Cards in 2024:
You can buy a ticket for this via this link:

Elastic Tape:
You can also have elastic tape applied on-site. The tape is applied to muscles and joints in an extended position without restricting the natural movement. Its elasticity adapts to every natural movement, preventing limitations and promoting faster recovery from injuries and pain. A separate card can be purchased for this service. The cost in 2024 was €25 per card (valid for one treatment).
For inquiries, you can contact info@ngsmassage.nl.
Blister Treatment:
For blister treatment, you can visit the first aid post where qualified blister treatment professionals are available. For preventive taping, you can visit from 5:00 PM to 10:00PM on the day before the first walking day. On other days, the treatment post is open from 3:00 PM to 10:00 PM (with possible extension). On the fourth day, treatment is available from 4:00 AM to 7:00 AM. The cost for treatment in 2024 was €10 per quarter hour. Payment is only possible by card.
First Aid:
For first aid emergencies, go directly to the Medical Support first aid post located at the blister treatment post next to the bathhouse. The first aid post is staffed 24/7, with a sleep service during the night. Follow the instructions posted on the tent. If you need urgent assistance, you can also call the following number: 06-23150373. This number is available 24/7 and will be answered by the first aider. In life-threatening situations, always call emergency services at 112. Our campsite is located on Parcel de Grift, behind Griftdijk 234 in Nijmegen. To ensure that emergency responders can find you quickly, please clearly indicate your location on our site.
You can rent a bike at the Vierdaagse campsite via our partner, Nijmegen Actief. Nijmegen Actief provides comfortable geared bikes and e-bikes, allowing you to explore Nijmegen throughout the week. If you reserve a geared bike, it will be ready for you at the campsite. At the end of the week, you return the bike at the campsite as well—super convenient! The rental period runs from Saturday, Sunday, or Monday through Friday. Different conditions apply for e-bikes.
