Coevorder Crossloop 2026

The Coevorder Crossloop is a cross-country running race in Coevorden, Drenthe. It takes place around the Klinkenvlierse Plas, using the local ice rink as the start and finish area. Participants can select distances from approximately 1.5 to 9 kilometers, suitable for beginners and those seeking a challenging local competition. The primary course is a 3-kilometer circuit around the lake, with longer races covering this loop for 6 or 9 kilometers. Loopgroep Coevorden, the local running club, is the organizer. Its brief history and focused format provide a simple community atmosphere: a single central location, defined lap distances, and a route established around a local outdoor area instead of urban streets.
