A great hike on an unmarked long distance trail.

At 46 km there is an unguarded train track crossing; make sure it's safe before crossing the tracks. At 156 km, you cross an old air force airbase.

This is not a race or event, but an unmarked long distance trail. Originally it was meant to be done on the longest day of the year since some parts are off-limits between dusk and dawn. However, solo runners and small groups are informally allowed to hike the entire course. The tracks aren't very technical with some exceptions near Soestduinen.

There are plenty of opportunities to replenish food and water along the course, as you'll be hiking through/near small towns and hamlets.

Over 90% of this course is trail (singletrack, dirt path, bridle way) with some bike paths and connecting roads in between. Since the course is unmarked, you'll have to rely on GPX navigation or use the Hiking Project mobile app to stay on course.

Make sure you bring anti-tick spray and/or tick pliers. Some of the areas you cross are infested with the creatures, especially during spring and summer.
