About us
Parkrun is a worldwide, weekly run/walk event organised by volunteers, entirely free and without obligations. In Rotterdam, Parkrun takes place in Kralingse Bos every Saturday morning, where 100-200 people run/walk 5k (at their own pace) and then meet up at the finish.
Our 250th edition is fast approaching (on May 30th 2026), with some special events and goodies to win.
You can join any week on Saturday at 9AM, or try it out during our 250th edition on May 30th. Your finishing time will be recorded if you register, but keep in mind that Parkrun is not a race, and that anyone is welcome regardless of speed, ability, language, background or anything else. We just get together to start the weekend well!

Parkrun Kralingse Bos 250th Celebratory Edition
Plaszoom, Kralingse Bos, Rotterdam, NLSaturday 30th May will be our 250th edition, which of course we will celebrate well! Parkrun is a free, weekly running/walking event run by volunteers in Kralingse Bos, starting every Saturday at 9AM. You complete a beautiful 5k lap through the forest at your own pace (walking or running), and can then gather for some chats at the end, or even for pancakes/coffee if you want.
For our 250th, we have a lot of special things planned, including a give-away of 3 pairs of Brooks shoes, a guided walk through the forest, free coffee at the start, special-edition Tony's Chocolate for finishers #10, 25, 50, 100 and 250, and you can try Brooks shoes for the 5k. All entirely free, made possible by volunteers, as is the case every week!
For more info, see the attached flyers, visit the website or feel free to message. Do try to be there from around 08:45 so you can also join the briefing; volunteers will be there from 08:30. If you've never done a parkrun before, you can register here.
Looking forward to seeing you on the 30th (and/or another Saturday of course!)
