About the event

The Two Rivers Marathon is a 42-kilometer road race that winds through the wide, open landscapes of the Bommelerwaard, flanked by the Maas and Waal rivers. This one-loop course offers scenic dike-top views and finishes in the medieval town of Zaltbommel. Designed as a qualifier for South Africa’s Two Oceans and Comrades Marathons, it attracts both international ultrarunners and local enthusiasts. Participants can choose between the solo marathon or the Duo Marathon, where two runners each complete half the distance. The race is known for its relaxed, personal atmosphere, live music along the course, and top-notch support. At the finish, runners are welcomed with warm hospitality, a signature Two Rivers beer, and a legendary “beer and braai” celebration just steps from the finish line. With BIB timing, custom shirts, and medals, this is an event where detail and community matter.

Highlights

The course offers a rare chance to run between two iconic Dutch rivers on a flat, scenic loop with long, open stretches and minimal urban disruption.

The event includes live music, recovery facilities, and the post-race beer and braai gathering.

An official qualifier for the Comrades and Two Oceans Marathons.
