Egmond Halve Marathon
The Egmond Halve Marathon in Egmond aan Zee takes place on Sunday 10 January 2027 and is organised by Le Champion. The event offers several race options on coastal and dune terrain, with routes that run over the beach and through the Noordhollands duinreservaat.
Distances and formats include:
- 21.1 km half marathon
- 10.5 km quarter marathon
- Kids Runs and Family Run
- Business Run and charity teams
The quarter marathon starts from Boulevard Noord, begins with a town loop of about 3 km, continues for roughly 2 km over the beach to Egmond-Binnen, then climbs toward the Noordhollands Duinreservaat. The return to Egmond aan Zee follows paved, hilly roads including the Middenweg and Van Oldenborghweg, with a final climb via the Bloedweg and about 500 metres to the finish on the Zeeweg near Hotel Zuiderduin.
Practical details for the quarter marathon: time clocks are placed at the start, the 6 km point and the finish; a time limit of 1.5 hours applies; tidally influenced beach widths can make the strand narrow. Clothing drop is organised near Sporthal De Watertoren with tagged bags, and changing facilities are available in the sports hall only to registered participants. Refreshment points are located around 5.5 km, 8 km and at the finish.
The event page lists registration options, merchandise and charity information, including a reported donation of € 8.830,- to PWN and the Prinses Beatrix Spierfonds as an official good cause. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
