100 km Dodentocht Kadee Bornem

Welcome at the official site of the 41th International 100 km Kadee Dodentocht!
 
In 2009 we celebrate the 40th anniversary of this walk with a number of festive activities organized throughout the year, to end with a fantastic apotheosis at the start of the walk on Friday August 14th at 9 pm.
 
Starting in 1970 with 69 walkers, the Dodentocht has now grown into the largest and most famous 100 km walk throughout Europe. More than 20 nationalities are represented.
 
The Dodentocht is more than just walking, it is thé walking classic, thé walking fair, thé walking feast, and thé annual walking exam. Famous and notorious are the huge ambiance at the start/arrival and all over the track, the smooth organization, the beautiful walk over three provinces, the combination of busy village centers and quiet places, and a full service. And yet any form of competition is missing, it is mostly a challenge against yourself! Everyone who reaches the arrival will receive the same kind of rewards.
 
Besides the nearly 10 000 participants, over 1500 volunteers are needed to steer everything smoothly, and we want to take the opportunity to thank all these people for all these years of hard labor!
 
At the same time we also work on our ideals, and we prove that friendship and solidarity are and remain very important. In 1970 our motto was “Alle menschen werden brüder”, in 2009 we basically mean the same with “Walking for a better world” !
 
Everybody is more than welcome at our 40-year anniversary !! Long live the Dodentocht !!!
