The Natuurlopen van Lier takes place in Lier, in the Belgian province of Antwerpen, on Saturday 23 January 2027. Runners can choose between a half marathon, a 10-mile, a 10-kilometre and a 5-kilometre distance, making it a multi-distance winter running event based in and around the town of Lier. The event is organised by Natuurlopen van Lier, and the organiser's own website should be consulted for the most recent information on courses, start times and race-day arrangements. Lier sits roughly 15 km south-east of Antwerp and is reachable by train, so the event draws runners from across the Antwerp region.

Other questions
Distance changes are normally handled by the organiser rather than automatically. Contact the race organisers through their website as early as possible and ask whether a switch is possible for the 2027 event.
Lier has a railway station with regular direct services from Antwerp and Mechelen, and the town centre is compact enough to walk. If you come by car, arrive early, because parking around the centre fills up on event mornings; the organiser's website carries the specific parking instructions.
Late January in Flanders is typically cold, often between 0°C and 6°C, and frequently wet or windy with the possibility of ice or light snow. Bring layers you can adjust, a water-resistant outer layer and a change of warm clothes for after the finish.
Yes. Lier's compact centre makes it easy for friends and family to watch runners pass and to move between spots on foot. Spectator-specific facilities are not listed, so plan to support from public areas of the town.
Yes, day registration is possible but more expensive. The registration desk closes irrevocably 30 minutes before the first start; after that only collection of pre-registered numbers is possible.
