The MEUSE MAASMARATHON offers you a marathon that is: RURAL, FABULOUS and RAPID.
RURAL: the circuit
Quiet paths, rural villages, the centre of Maastricht, Eijsden castle and other historical treasures along the river Meuse and across through the lovely Belgian and Dutch landscapes
FABULOUS: the atmosphere
At time when a wider Europe is coming into being, a cross-border marathon at the heart of the EUREGIO has all the qualities it needs to make it an event you cannot afford to miss. The fabulous atmosphere is created by our groups, dancers and our bandas as they spur the athletes on at all levels to reach the finishing line as quickly as possible.
RAPID : timing
Over 8 % of the participants taking part in the marathon crossed regularly the finishing line in under 3 hours.
The signal for the start of the Meuse Maasmarathon between Visé, Maastricht, Eijsden, Fourons and Visé, will be given at 9h05.
Why not emulate Phillipides, the Greek solider, who in 490 BC ran from Marathon to Athens to announce General Miltiade’s victory over the invaders.
Join us in this 42.195 km mythical race. The very special moments experienced during this marathon make this race the most historical one of all the track and field events.
