Recurring 5K races near Eindhoven

Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

Wilhelminaberg Trappen Marathon
SAT OCT 3
The Wilhelminaberg Trappen Marathon course for runners includes a 248-meter staircase with 508 steps. This race takes place in Landgraaf, South Limburg, situated on the 93-meter Wilhelminaberg, which is the highest slag heap in the Netherlands. It is a lap-based road and stair race, offering distances from 5 km up to a marathon, alongside a kids run and a Business Run for teams of up to five. Each standard lap is 1,090 meters. Consequently, the 5 km requires 5 laps, the 10 km is 10 laps, the 10 mile is 16 laps, the half marathon is 21 laps, and the marathon is 42 laps. The full marathon involves runners ascending the staircase 44 times, totaling 22,350 steps. This is why Dutch media refers to it as the toughest marathon in the Netherlands. The kids run features a scaled-down version of the central element: it begins at the base of the stairs and concludes at the summit.
Ittre Night Run
SAT OCT 3
The Ittre Night Run starts in the village of Ittre in Belgium and sends runners out at dusk in autumn. It offers 5 km and 13 km races, with a kids run added for younger runners, so the evening is built for families as well as regular joggers. The race leans into the night setting: runners follow candlelit stretches, and the village adds a sound-and-light show around the event. Locals call it the “Nightrunners” jog, and its appeal comes from the simple setup of an autumn village run turned into an after-dark group outing.
21. Korschenbroicher Waldlauf
SAT OCT 3
The Korschenbroich Forest Run takes place at Am Sportplatz in Korschenbroich. The event offers 5K and 10K races, providing standard distances for participants. The event includes options for children and students, catering to a range of age groups. Nordic Walking is also available, allowing participants to join the same race setting without competing as runners.
De Beuningse Plasloop
SUN OCT 4
The De Beuningse Plasloop is an annual run in Beuningen, Gelderland, organized around the lake at the edge of town. This local road race includes 10 km and 5 km distances, two Kidsrun options, and an Ondernemersrun for corporate teams. The event accommodates a wide range of participants for its size: children, adult runners, competitive athletes, framerunners, and business teams are all included in the program. The course circles a former sand extraction site and follows the Beuningse Plas, primarily on paved paths outside the town limits. The route is mostly clear of vehicle traffic, with W.S.V. "de Beuningse Plas" acting as the start, finish, and central point. Post-race, participants gather at the clubhouse terrace, where volunteers from the watersports club offer drinks. The race employs electronic timing, posts results later, and presents medals and awards across multiple categories, including a special prize for the quickest entrepreneur.
Pro Kids Lauf Emmerich
SUN OCT 4
TV Sportfreunde Elten's run offers a chance for families to get active together. Children can run at Eugen-Reintjes-Stadion. The Pro Kids Lauf Emmerich has been a tradition since 2011.
Langs de Gouweloop Waddinxveen
SUN OCT 4
Langs de Gouweloop is a local road race in Waddinxveen, organized by Sportclub Antilope. The start and finish are on Gouweplein at the town’s shopping center. The program includes a 1.3 km kids run, and 5 km and 10 km performance runs for older participants. From Gouweplein, the route goes past the train station between Coenecoop and the Triangel district. A large part of the race takes place in Triangel before returning to the shopping center. The event has passed fifty editions, making it a long-running fixture.
79. Viersener Herbstwaldlauf Rund um den Bismarckturm
SAT OCT 10
The Viersener Herbstwaldlauf Rund um den Bismarckturm is an autumn forest race in Viersen, Germany. All races start and finish at Stadion Hoher Busch. The program features a rolling 5k run, a 10k run, and a 7.25k walk or Nordic walk, catering to both runners and walkers. The 5k is open to adults aged 14 and older, with a one-hour time limit. The walking and Nordic walking event is open to participants aged 10 and older. Results are categorized by birth-year age groups, extending to older masters categories. The event also includes races for children and youth.
Dordtse Biesbosch Trailrun
SAT OCT 10
The Dordtse Biesbosch Trailrun begins and ends at the organizer's grounds on Schenkeldijk in Dordrecht, South Holland. This trail race crosses the Nieuwe Dordtse Biesbosch, offering distance options from short Family Runs to a half marathon. Participants can select 3 km or 5 km Family Run courses, a standard 5 km, 10 km, 10 English Miles, or a 21.1 km half marathon, catering to children, novice runners, and those seeking a longer off-road challenge. The courses feature narrow paved paths, unpaved tracks, sandy stretches, and dikes, leading through the Nieuwe Dordtse Biesbosch, the floodplains beside the Nieuwe Merwede, and the Elzenbos. The trail surface may present puddles, streams, branches, and tree trunks, making the race a test of adaptability to varied terrain rather than a pursuit of speed on a smooth road. The start-finish area provides baggage drop-off and changing facilities. The event maintains a relaxed outdoor atmosphere with campfires, marshmallow roasting for children post-race, and refreshments including coffee, tea, soft drinks, satay, and beer.
ASML Marathon Eindhoven
SAT OCT 10
The ASML Marathon Eindhoven takes place over two days on the second weekend of October. It stands as North Brabant's largest two-day sports event, featuring a full marathon, half marathon, quarter marathon, City Run, Kids Run, Urban Walk, and Your Marathon Challenge. The half marathon attracts the most runners, and the main race accommodates up to 15,000 participants. The course is flat and wide, facilitating fast times, with a finish in the city center. Supporters line the route, and the event welcomes club runners, charity participants, families, and newcomers. A local tradition involves a connection with KWF's Run Against Cancer, allowing participants to fundraise for guaranteed entry spots when standard registration closes.
Monumentenloop Vorselaar
SUN OCT 11
Monumentenloop Vorselaar is a road race held in October in Vorselaar, Belgium, organized by the local running club De Kasteellopers. It begins at the Sportcentrum on Oostakker and offers participants a choice of 5 km, 10 km, or 15 km distances, suitable for both short-distance runners and those seeking a longer local race. The event is connected to the club activities of De Kasteellopers, a group that trains weekly and accepts runners of any pace or distance. The course runs through and around the Kasteeldreef area. Race day involves runners, helpers, and supporters, not solely competitors. One recorded edition had 168 finishers, suggesting a small community race rather than a large city event.
EnergyVision Dwars Door Hasselt
SUN OCT 11
EnergyVision Dwars Door Hasselt is a city running event held in Hasselt, Limburg, offering race distances from a 1 km kids run to a 21.0975 km half marathon. It is known locally as Limburg’s coziest city run, yet it is also a significant event, with almost 14,000 runners participating in a recent edition, ranking it as the third largest running event in Flanders. The event features 3 km, 5 km, 10 km, 15 km, the half marathon, the Persil Kids Run, and a handbike race. The half marathon is officially measured and World Athletics-certified, attracting approximately 3,000 runners since its introduction. The children’s run is untimed, while the 3 km through half marathon races utilize chips to record net time from start to finish. Participants receive a commemorative medal, aid stations along the route and at the finish, changing rooms and showers at PXL, bag storage, and results published online and via Het Belang van Limburg’s digital newspaper.
Semi-Marathon de la province de Liège
SUN OCT 18
The Semi-Marathon de la province de Liège begins on Île Monsin, at the Esplanade Roi Albert, and concludes near the new Coronmeuse eco-district. It is a flat, fast race day centered on the half marathon and 10 km, with a 5 km race, an 8 km walk, and a children’s race also scheduled. The start area is at the end of the tram line, allowing runners to reach it by tram at Coronmeuse, a small detail that recalls the old Liège marathon era. The route traces parts of Liège’s industrial and riverside landscape: the banks of the Meuse, the canal, Coronmeuse and its track, the Chertal redevelopment site, and the company roads of Île Monsin, including road number 12. A section of the half marathon follows the path of Liège’s historic marathon; the city hosted one of the world’s earliest marathons, and this event revives that old course. The post-race village is located on the island, near passing boats, making the finish area feel connected to the river and port as much as to the race itself.

About 5K races in Eindhoven

Eindhoven Training Notes

Eindhoven hosts 103 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals run the Dommel River Trail when they want water, shade, and easy distance without leaving town. Genneper Parken gives runners 7 to 10 km of mixed paths, and Philips de Jongh Park works well for a calm 3 to 4 km shakeout. Social Run Club Eindhoven meets on Wednesday at 19:30 and Saturday at 10:00. Tante Trail runs women-only 5 or 10 km trails on Saturday morning. Trailrunners Brabant does social trails and Hill Repeat Monday. ASML Marathon Eindhoven anchors the calendar, with Dommelloop Eindhoven, Genneper Parkenloop, Urban Trail Eindhoven, and Wasvenloop filling the year.

Locals ride Rondje Eindhoven when they want anything from 20 to 75 km without overthinking the route. Fietsrondje Noord-West gives riders 17 km past Philips de Jonghpark, Landgoed De Wielewaal, Genneper Parken, Philips Fruittuin, and De Herdgang. The Van Gogh Roosegaarde cycle path adds 600 meters of glow to an easy spin. Gravel riders start the 113 km route from Eindhoven, and 100 km of it runs on gravel with 28 mm tires still working fine. Onyva has speed groups, and its fastest group averages 29-32 km/h. Gulberg gives the climbs, with 60 meters above NAP and a mountain bike route.

Spring and summer suit both runners and riders best because the paths feel good and the parks stay easy for base miles, intervals, and long Z2. Hot days hit 32°C, so locals shift harder sessions earlier. Autumn and winter change the mood more than the map. Leenderheide, Leenderbos, Boktse Beemden, and the narrow unpaved bits can turn properly muddy, while frequent frosts make winter rides sharper, but normal winters do not keep lasting snow cover.
