Spelderholtloop

The Spelderholtloop is an October running event held at Parc Spelderholt in Beekbergen, Gelderland, Netherlands. This is a straightforward race day offering distances suitable for various runners: 500 meters, 2 kilometers, 5 kilometers, and 10 kilometers. No minimum age is enforced, allowing children to participate in the shorter races while adults and club runners can opt for the longer distances. Registration costs are low, ranging from €2 to €15, with options for pre-registration or signing up on the day of the event. The start and finish lines are located within Parc Spelderholt. The shorter races are contained within the park grounds, whereas the 5 km and 10 km courses extend into the surrounding woods; the surface is noted as paved. Each distance begins at a separate time, and participants are recommended to arrive at least thirty minutes prior to their start to collect their race number. Parking is provided at the entrance, and there is ample space on the grounds for warm-ups. Post-race, refreshments such as coffee or lunch are available at the restaurant or on the terrace without requiring a reservation.
