Start and finish location<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This year, the starting area is on the Oude Markt in Sittard. You’ll find this street between the church and Hotel de Limbourg. This new starting area offers space for more walkers to start immediately after the starting gun. The finish is at the pavilion on the Markt. <\/p>\n\n\n\r\n
