The Zandvoort Light Walk turns a February evening in Zandvoort into something rather magical: routes through the village, along the coast and into the dunes, lit up along the way. It is a sociable walk rather than a race, so bring friends and take your time.
Four distances mean everyone from families to keen walkers can join, and the start is in the cosy village centre, so a drink afterwards is never far away.
- When: Saturday 6 February 2027. Check the official site for start times closer to the date.
- Where: Louis Davids Carré, village centre, Zandvoort
- Distances: 6.5 km (family walk), 10 km, 14 km or 18 km
- Tickets: Registration is open: €16.50 (6.5 km), €28 (10 km), €29 (14 km), €30 (18 km). Le Champion members get 20% off. Register on the official site.
- Getting there: Direct trains run from Amsterdam Centraal and Haarlem to Zandvoort aan Zee. The start at Louis Davids Carré is only a few minutes’ walk from the station.
Good to know: Local tip: Zandvoort gets properly chilly and windy by the sea in February, so wear a warm hat and grab a hot chocolate in the centre afterwards.
