Lochem Hill Run

On Saturday, April 4, 2026, the Woest Lochemsebergloop took place again. This was the fourth edition of this 'revitalized cross-country run'. The Woest Lochemsebergloop is unique because of its beautiful location and the route along scenic paths of the Lochemse Berg.

By popular demand, we have made small adjustments to the 9.5km route, making it now 10km!

When you picked up your race number, you received a €20 voucher from Woest Sport*.

*with a minimum spend of €100
