You may pre-register for a volksmarch by sending the required fee and form to the sponsoring club. There is no refund if you are unable to make it to a pre-registered walk. Volksmarches are not canceled because of weather. The brochure will give directions to the start place from the nearest highway. Look for directional signs as you near the start point.
Walks often start at a recreational area or a park.
Check the times listed in the brochure as different walks may have slightly different hours. Take your time and enjoy the walk and the companionship of other participants. Walkers may walk alone or in groups. Distance credit is given for completing the walk multiple times, but only one event credit is given for a walk. Generally, the sponsoring club will place a large start sign and IVV flag or banner at the start place to make it easily seen by approaching motorists.
