What we’re about
Welcome to Nijmegen, Explore and More!
This group is for anyone who likes fresh air, friendly faces and good vibes, in and around the oldest city in the Netherlands.
Whether you're Dutch, new in town, or just a fan of getting lost in the woods (mostly on purpose), you're in the right place!
We like to mix things up to keep it interesting and are open to almost anything: hiking, biking, camping, sports (no pressure), food, weekend trips, day trips, meditation, et cetera.
Got an idea for an event? Don’t be shy, share it! We're always up for something fun, weird, or wonderfully random. This group grows with everyone’s input, so let’s make it memorable, a little unexpected, and above all: fun!
Please only hit Attend if you're (almost) sure you can join. We often have full events with a lot of no-shows, while others are stuck on the waiting list. If you're not sure yet, just bookmark đź”– the event (top-left in the app, or the bottom of the webpage). And if something comes up and you cannot attend, please change your RSVP to Not going.
After 2 no-shows at limited-capacity events, you might unfortunately be banned from the group. Let's avoid that and keep it fun for everyone! Thanks!

- Eifel Hike in Germany - Rocky Ridges near AltenahrNijmegen CS, Nijmegen
Join us for another unforgettable hike through the stunning landscapes of the Eifel region in Germany! This time we will start near the rocky ridges of Altenahr. This isn't your average walk in the woods - expect steep sections, exposed rocky edges, and some light scrambling where hands and feet will be needed. We’ll take in dramatic views, navigate narrow paths, and challenge ourselves on terrain that’s maybe a bit more climb than hike at times. Good shoes, a head for heights, and a decent level of fitness will definitely come in handy.
The journey
Distance: ~14 km of diverse landscapes. This may seem short, but the terrain will slow us down in some places.
Elevation: ~370 m
Terrain: Steep hills, rocky but mostly well-maintained paths, with the occasional bit of steep climbs and cliffs.
Duration: ~6.0 hours (including breaks, excluding dinner)📍Meeting Point, schedule & travel info
