As the city is visited by thousands of people during the Vierdaagsefeesten we advise you to head to the centre by bike, by public transport or on foot, if possible. This also helps Vierdaagsefeesten in its sustainability goals. More information on ways to get to the city below.
Want to cycle to the city? Check the map for the extra bike parking spots to see where you can park safely. For opening hours of guarded bike parking spaces, check www.nijmegen.nl. Use the app fietsplek for free spots at the general guarded parking spots of the city Council.
Lost your bike? If you parked your bike incorrectly, it might be taken to AFAC - check here if your bike is there, or try verlorenofgevonden.nl. In case you think your bike was stolen, contact the police.
Train to Nijmegen? No problem! There will be additional trains between Zwolle-Arnhem-Nijmegen, Utrecht-Arnhem-Nijmegen and 'sHertogenbosch-Nijmegen. Saturday until Thursday the last train to Arnhem leaves at 01.56 and to 's Hertogenbosch at 01.58. On Friday the last train to Arnhem is scheduled at 02.27 and to 's Hertogenbosch at 02.31.
Because of the crowds on Friday there will be extra trains between Nijmegen and Arnhem Central Station. This means there will be no direct trains between Nijmegen and Utrecht or Arnhem and 's Hertogenbosch.
Arriva will provide more (night) trains between Arnhem, Doetichem and Tiel and from Nijmegen to Venray and back. Moreover, there will be greater capacity on the trains between Nijmegen and Venlo.
