Urban Trail Haarlem

Urban Trail Haarlem is a city-center run in Haarlem, Noord-Holland, offering a short option of about 5-6 km and a longer option of about 10-12 km. The event takes place in November, beginning at De Koepel and leading runners through Haarlem's historic streets, squares, and landmarks instead of a typical road-race circuit. The course is designed around locations people often pass by, incorporating historical buildings, secluded spots, narrow passages, and notable venues. Past events have featured De DAKKAS along the route. Organizers disclose the exact route details progressively, adding an element of discovery as participants learn which buildings and areas will be accessible. Over 1,600 runners participated in a recent edition. The event supports Ren tegen kanker, enabling participants to fundraise for KWF Kankerbestrijding and receive a campaign shirt upon raising at least 500 euros.
