Pick up days

Get your walking badge in advance

What is your starting number?

To leave with peace of mind, you can pick up your walking badge in advance during pick-up days.
This ensures that during the 100KM Dodentocht you can walk straight to the start zone and no longer have to be at the tent on the Kardinaal Cardijnplein.

Can’t make it to Bornem beforehand to collect your walking badge? No problem. Someone else can also bring it for you. Then give that person your QR code.
And even if you can’t find anyone to collect your badge, you can collect your number on the day itself in the tent on the Cardijnplein.

Collection days will take place at the Bornem presentation sports hall, Temsesteenweg in Bornem, on the following days:

  • 26 July 2025 13-17h
  • 2 August 2025 13-17h
  • 6 August 2025 15-19h

It is also possible to collect your participation envelope on Friday 8 August 2025 in the tent on the Kardinaal Cardijnplein in Bornem, between 1pm and 8 pm.

In the envelope you will find the following items:

  • Control badge with start number: The control badge must be worn visibly throughout the walk. It serves for your registration in the control posts during the Dodentocht. This registration happens automatically. In the control posts it is compulsory to wear the badge on top of your clothes. If you ordered a meal, this will also appear on your badge.
  • Wristband: the wristband serves as an extra control in the control posts.
  • Lanyard: cord to wear your badge around your neck during Death Walk.

However, departing before 21:00 is strictly forbidden. Without a starting scan or in case of fraud, participants will no longer be allowed to participate with immediate effect and removed from the participants’ list, and not receive any form of compensation and reward.
