About the Ommen area
The Veluwe, in the Ommen region and along the Overijsselse Vecht, offers a breathtaking location for a trail run. This area, rich in natural diversity, combines the vast forests of the Veluwe with the picturesque river landscapes along the Vecht, creating a unique running experience. Trail run participants can enjoy the serene forests, which provide a sense of peace and unity with nature, while the paths along the Vecht provide beautiful views and a refreshing breeze.
The course is both challenging and inspiring, with varied surfaces, from soft forest floors to sandy paths and pebble banks along the river. The natural hills of the Veluwe offer physical challenges with steep climbs and descents, while the open fields and riverbanks allow moments of rapid progress.
Trailrunners in the Ommen region and along the Overijsselse Vecht can expect to be completely immersed in the landscape, with every kilometer revealing new natural wonders. This trail run is not only a physical performance, but also a deep dive into the beauty of one of the Netherlands' most beloved nature reserves, where the harmony between forest and water is central.
