Location

The Vierdaagsecamping is just a 20-minute bike ride from the start/finish at the Wedren. We build the Campsite here once a year on a beautiful, vast meadow especially for the Four Days Marches. An excellent cycle path from the campsite along the Griftdijk takes you to “de Snelbinder”, the cycle bridge over the Waal that takes you to the center of Nijmegen. On “Elst Day” the Four Days Marches pass by just 1 km away from the camping. This is the ideal day to invite friends and family to come and watch! By booking a single overnight stay, visitors can also stay overnight.

Route description

The campsite is located on the Griftdijk in Nijmegen on Perceel De Grift. Please note that before you enter the campsite, you must check in first. The check-in location is at the “back entrance” of our campsite.

From the A15:

  1. For road safety, you first navigate to the roundabout just past the gas station at Stationsstraat 27 in Nijmegen. (photo 1)
  2. Turn through the roundabout so that you end up on the right side of the road. So drive around.
  3. Then navigate to Griftdijk 234 and drive just past it to the side street marked with a P-Carpool sign. (photo 2)
  4. Turn into the side street. There is also a sign that indicates that the street is a dead end. However, this is not the case as you can reach our campsite via this route.
  5. Then drive just past Griftdijk 244 (De Mussenhut visitor center) until you reach the next side street after a few meters. (photo 3)
  6. Follow staff instructions or signs.
  7. Our check-in is just around the corner. If you are with a larger vehicle, it is useful to park on the road at the side, let the co-driver check in on foot and only then drive into the side street. You will then drive past our check-in to the campsite.

The Griftdijk is a very busy road. So make sure you don't just cross over but turn via the roundabout. This is how we prevent dangerous traffic situations.

Are you coming from the other side of the Griftdijk or Stationsstraat?, then you'll be hit from the roundabout and you can navigate from step 3.

Parking camping guests
Are you coming to De Vierdaagsecamping by car but haven't you booked a parking ticket when you made your reservation? No problem, you can purchase these separately here via our reservation system. The parking tickets are limited. Upon arrival, it may no longer be possible to purchase a parking ticket for the entire period. So reserve it in advance!

Parking day visitors/supporters
If the car only stays 1 day because someone is dropping you off or picking you up, or if you have family or friends visiting during the week, you can park the car nearby. Follow the signs for 'day parking Vierdaagsecamping'. There are only a few parking spaces available for day guests at the campsite itself.

Car-free
Please drive at walking pace around the campsite. The speed limit is 10 km/h. After the arrival days, the campsite is completely car-free. To load and unload the car, we ask you not to park the car on narrow roads and not leave it unattended.
