Arrival day

Travel to Normandy

Sunday the 14th of June 2026

From every corner of the world, runners unite in Normandy. Be prepared: the challenge begins here at the D-Day beaches, for six unforgettable days. Your adventure starts the moment you join the group. Meet your crew, load up your gear, and get together. It’s the perfect time to connect with fellow runners, share expectations, and feel the excitement grow.

As you travel, the scenery shifts until the rugged coastline of Normandy comes into view. You sense what lies ahead: six days of movement, challenge, and connection.

Participants can travel to the start in Normandy using their own transport. Alternatively, you can book an optional bus transfer from the Netherlands (Utrecht) or Belgium (Antwerp) for € 80 at registration.

At basecamp you check in, settle down, and breathe. Tomorrow, the LiberationTrail starts here.
