‘The 4Days Marches had been on my bucket list for years’
To make it easier for you, we have already answered many questions! We have gathered all imaginable questions and categorised them into topics. This helps you find the answer to your specific question quickly and easily.
Choose a main topic, the rest should follow!
You can easily change your email address yourself on My 4Days. Click ‘Edit account’ and change your email address. Click ‘Save’ to save your new details.
You can easily change your password yourself on My 4Days. Click ‘Change password’. Enter your old password once and then set a new password. Repeat this new password and save the change.
You can submit a request to swap starting groups on My 4Days. You cannot swap starting groups with another walker without going through My 4Days.
• To let other walkers know that you want to switch to another starting group, click the ‘Submit swap request’ button on My 4Days. Your request to swap starting group is being processed if the button text has changed to ‘Cancel swap request’.
• You will not immediately be placed in the other starting group - the swap will only be made when another walker makes his or her place available, and it also depends on the number of other outstanding requests.
• As soon as there is a place available in the starting group of your choice, your starting group will automatically be changed in your registration in our records. You will receive a new starting ticket as soon as the swap has been completed. You will find your new starting ticket on My 4Days
• Please note: if there are no spots available at the other starting group, the exchange cannot take place. Experience shows that there usually are more requests from participants who wish to swap from Gladiolus to Walking Shoe than the other way around. This means that there is a longer waiting time for swapping from Gladiolus to Walking Shoe than for swapping from Walking Shoe to Gladiolus.
• If you want to withdraw your request, go to My 4Days and click on the button with the text ‘Cancel request to swap’.
• It is possible to submit a request to change your registration desk up to and until 13 July. After 13 July, all requests will automatically expire.

• To withdraw your request to switch starting groups, click the ‘Cancel switch request’ button on My 4Days.
• Requests to switch starting groups can be submitted up to 13 July. After 13 July, all pending requests will be cancelled.

A companion is a person aged eighteen or above who walks the 4Days Marches with you. Such persons cannot be companions and at the same time participate in the event by walking the regulation or extended distance. A companion is not officially a participant and does not receive a reward. For all the information about companions, see the 2023 4Days Marches Regulations for Companions for Young Individual Participants.
Before you are logged in on My 4Days, you will get a screen asking you to enter the registration number and password. Below the ‘Log in’ button, you will see the option to add a companion. The companion does not get a reward. The 2023 4Days Marches Regulations for Companions for Young Individual Participants specify the requirements that a companion has to meet.
No, you can add no more than one companion to a registration. The companion will walk with the young individual (born in 2008, 2009, 2010 or 2011) during the marching days. You can, however, change companions during the 4Days Marches. To do so, report to the Service Desk with the wristband after a marching day or before your next start with the companion band and the new companion. You will then get a new band for your new companion. For all the information about companions, see the 2023 4Days Marches Regulations for Companions for Young Individual Participants.
The fee for adding a companion is €40, which you will need to pay immediately using iDEAL.
The 4Day Marches has an achievement element and for the participant to be able to deliver the performance required, he or she must be adequately trained and prepared.

A dispensation request may be submitted (by email or post) once your registration for the 4Day Marches has been accepted and must reach the Stichting DE 4DAAGSE by no later than 15 June.

When signing in the child on Sunday 16 July or Monday 17 July 2023, the companion must be able to show valid identification and he/she must report to the registration office in person, together with the child. You can read all the information about registering here:
The first walking day will take you to the Betuwe region where you walk over the famous dike between Lent and Oosterhout, past green orchards and through beautiful villages. Balloons, flags, banners and partying spectators colour everything blue as you pass through Elst, in recognition of the two mighty rivers the Waal and the Rhine.
The second walking day takes you through the Land van Maas en Waal region. You walk through woodland and wetlands, through music-filled villages and over open farmland. Tens of thousands of spectators are waiting for you in the partying town of Wijchen. There is a good chance that, as is the tradition, you will get an apple handed to you. In Nijmegen, in the meantime, everything is turning pink.
The third walking day will take you to the ‘seven hills of Groesbeek’. You walk along waterways, through woods, over hills, through lovely green villages like Mook and Milsbeek, and past rolling vineyards. Once in Groesbeek, you merge with the spectators into one single, partying mass. And when you leave the town the infamous hills loom before you. Are you ready to defeat them? Day 3 is the ‘queen stage’ of this walking achievement event.
The fourth and final walking day brings you to the grand entry along Via Gladiola. This morning’s walk takes you through beautiful wetlands. Enjoy the peaceful setting while you can, because once you enter Cuijk you’re swept up into one big party. Your crossing over the River Meuse is a truly special experience: military engineers have constructed a pontoon bridge for you to cross. Once across the bridge, the excitement increases with every step you take. Via Gladiola awaits your arrival!
The 4Days Marches is a walking achievement event. It is compulsory to at least walk your regulation distance. Which distance that is, depends on your year of birth and gender. For all the information about distances, see here:
For male military participants, the regulation distance is 40km. You must, however, carry at least ten kilogrammes of marching kit. This requirement does not apply to civilian participants. For more information, see:
The routes of the 4Days Marches are never exactly 30, 40 or 50 kilometres. Various factors play a role in determining the routes. There are logistical factors like access to the roads and accessibility for security services, for example, but also aesthetic considerations like whether it is a pleasant route with sufficient variation between nature and residential areas, et cetera. The fact that the total distance to be covered may deviate slightly has already been taken into account in the daily time limit for the walk, which is long enough that every participant should be able to complete the route within the set time.
The table below shows the walking distances of the 2022 4Days Marches per day.
30km | 40km | 40km MIL | 50km | |
Day 1 | 33,2 | 39,7 | 43,3 | 52,1 |
Day 2 | 33,6 | 39,5 | 37,5 | 48,5 |
Day 3 | 30,5 | 39,3 | 40,0 | 50,2 |
Day 4 | 30,0 | 42,5 | 45,8 | 50,2 |
Total | 127,3 | 161,0 | 166,6 | 201,0 |
Every individual participant receives a checkpoint card upon signing in (on Sunday and Monday) and at the end of each marching day (except Friday). This card can be checked during the day at different places along the route by officials.
At the end of the marching day the checkpoint card has to be handed in at the registration desk. The card will be checked and if approved, the wristband will be scanned and you will receive a checkpoint card for the next day.
For all the information about the checkpoints, see here:
All participants in the group will receive a wristband from their group leader or detachment commander. During each walking day, officials will make announced and unannounced inspections at various intervals along the route. The group has to be complete at all of these inspections. It should be noted that group participants should be able to prove their identity when they are requested to do so. For more information, read the Regulations for civilian groups.
For all the information about the checkpoints, see here:
Tens of thousands of walkers participate in the 4Days Marches. There are various regulations in place to ensure that our walking event runs smoothly, safely and fairly. Including the disqualification regulations. You can read it here:

"You need to take your phone with you as GPS LiveTracking will not work otherwise. You must also connect your registration number to your account. Follow the instructions below to do so.
During the event, you press the start button before you start to activate your GPS LiveTracking and your supporters will then be able to see where you are.
Then in your account settings, turn on 'GPS tracking'."
To activate the GPS LiveTracking feature, you need to connect your registration number to the app by creating an account in the 4Days Marches app. Confirm your email address after registering and log in with your account in the 4Days Marches app. If you do not receive an email reply, check your spam box. Then in your account settings, turn on 'GPS tracking'.
Next, register in the app as a walker. Enter the registration number in your profile. Your registration number is the same as your 4Days Marches registration number.
If you only want your supporters to be able to track you and nobody else, set your profile to private. This setting means that only people who know your secret PIN code can track you. You set this PIN code yourself.
On your profile page, you can see how many followers you have. Click on followers to see who is following you. Here, you can also remove people you don't want following you.
You can also manage who is allowed to track you or not, by setting your profile to private. Only people with a pin code provided by you can track you.
First, download the app. Search for walkers by name or registration number in the app and click ‘volgen’ (track). If you do not already have an account and are not logged in, you do need to enter your name first, so that the person knows you are following them. If the person in question has created a private profile, you will need a PIN code. Ask the walker you want to support to give you this PIN code.
If you have not created an account on the app that your registration number is linked to, you cannot be tracked by anyone.
No, you can only be tracked when you walk the route. If you are not on the route, other people cannot use LiveTracking to see where you are.
In the app, you can switch between each day to view the routes. To do this, go to the LiveTracking page and click on the 'distance' at the bottom left. Here you can view all the routes.
Make sure you have selected the correct day and distance so that the start button appears. You can view this on the LiveTracking page.
Have you selected the correct day and distance, but still don't see a start button? Please contact Tracx.
You can finish your LiveTracking in three ways:
1. Through the finish scan;
2. By GPS detection on the route;
3. By manually pressing the finish button in the app.
Check that the name and date of birth in your profile match the details you used to register for the 4Days Marches. If you have any questions about the app or experience any problems, please contact team@tracx.events.

The starting ticket is a confirmation of your registration and you must be able to present it when you sign in on Sunday or Monday. If you are walking the 30 or 40km routes, you can also see on the starting ticket which starting group you have been placed in. As soon as your starting ticket is ready we will let you know by email. All the information about the starting ticket is available here:
After the contact person has created a group, you can view this in My 4Days. At 'Civilian group' you can see which group you are registered in. You will not receive your own ticket.
The contact person of your group will receive an overview of the group registration in the beginning of July. He or she can then sign in all group participants at the same time.
Each individual 30 and 40km participant will be given a wristband upon signing in (on Sunday and Monday), which will have either the ‘Walking shoe’ or the ‘Gladiolus’ symbol on it. All participants need to have the bar code on this wristband scanned at the start. The starting crew checks the symbol on the wristband to make sure participants start in the right starting group.
Anyone entering the start area for the first starting slot who has not been assigned that starting time will not have their wristband scanned and will be sent away. From a sporting point of view, starting the march without having your bar code scanned is pointless, since disqualification upon arrival at the finish will unfortunately be inevitable. For all the information about starting, see here:
The start/finish location for the 4Days Marches is at De Wedren car park at the following address:
Wedren, Waldeck Pyrmontsingel 40, 6524 BB Nijmegen. For all the information about starting, see here:
Every starting group can use the first starting time on a maximum of two walking days and the second starting time on two (or more) walking days. Your starting group is specified on your starting ticket. Your starting ticket will be available on My 4Days within 24 hours after we have received your registration and payment. For all the information about the starting times, see here:
The starting groups and times ensure the best possible spread of participants along the route. Every individual 30 and 40km participant will be placed in either the ‘Gladiolus’ starting group or the ‘Walking shoe’ starting group at random. Every starting group can use the first starting time on a maximum of two walking days and the second starting time on two (or more) walking days. For all the information about starting, see here:
Before the start, the group appears fully at the start gate for civilian groups and sets up there. An authorised staff member counts the number of group members and scans the wristbands of all group participants. All information about the start can be found here:
