The Plopsa Run is a huge success!

Thank you for your enthusiasm and for taking part. To make sure everyone has a great time, we advise against bringing supporters. The running route goes through Plopsaland, so the park is closed all evening. Unfortunately, this means we can offer supporters very little to enjoy. We therefore recommend not bringing any supporters.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation! How to get to the Plopsa Run easily
