Mescherbergloop - Information and registration
Leestijd: 2 min
Welcome to the Mescherbergloop, a true classic among mountain runs in the Netherlands, which has been making runners' hearts beat faster for over 30 years. Organized by the Maasrunners, this annual event takes place in the breathtaking landscape of the Savelsbos, near Eijsden and the picturesque church village of Mesch (municipality of Eijsden-Margraten). With its rolling hills and idyllic meadows, the Mescherbergloop offers a unique challenge in the southernmost part of Limburg.
Table of contents
The trails around Eijsden take you through the Savelsbos, an idyllic forest area with narrow paths and considerable differences in height. This forest is known for its chalky soil, special flora and ancient marl caves, which give the area a unique character. In addition, you can enjoy views over the Maas and the surrounding hills, while testing your fitness on the steep climbs and technical descents.
With its peaceful, unspoilt nature and charming village surroundings, Eijsden offers a unique setting for trail runners. Whether you choose a short route through the forest or a longer trip over the hills, Eijsden combines challenge with the beauty of the Limburg landscape.
Don't forget your obligatory trail cup
A trail cup is increasingly mandatory at trail runs to reduce waste and promote sustainability. By allowing participants to bring their own cup, organizers avoid the use of disposable cups and protect nature. This fits in with the self-sufficiency that comes with trail running and saves costs.
