About
In Gooik, a village in Flemish Brabant, Evillastour Atletiekclub Pajottenland hosts an early-September running event centered on the Pajotse parel trail. Adult participants can select from 6, 11, 22, or 33 kilometer distances, while children have 400m and 800m races on the track.
The courses traverse the rolling Pajottenland countryside, avoiding a flat village loop. The 6 km route includes approximately 80 meters of elevation gain, the 11 km has 110 meters, the 22 km has 220 meters, and the 33 km reaches 440 meters. Atletiekclub Pajottenland VZW organizes the event, providing changing rooms and showers. Every participant receives a nature prize, and the top three finishers in each distance are awarded podium prizes.
