Julian Alps and its surroundings offer everything that trail running stands for – mountain paths, where easy and runnable terrains intertwine and sometimes surprise you with more technical ones. Distances: 10, 15, 30, 60, 100 and 170K. See you in Kranjska Gora, 24.9 - 26.9.2021.
A true SkyRace, taking you deep into the mountains. It begins in the picturesque Kranjska Gora and then takes you straight to steep uphills, where you’ll even have to use your arms to be able to climb. All efforts will be repaid once you get to the top, where beautiful views and a daredevil downhill await. The route is a perfect mixture of fast, wide parts and some very technical sections on mountain paths. Your race starts right in the heart of Kranjska Gora. From there you make your way to the river Pišnica and stunning lake Jasna. A beautiful trail then leads you through Tofov graben towards Gozd Martuljek, where you cross the main road right under the bridge and climb Srednji vrh, while passing the lower Jerman waterfall. That’s where you get a stunning view Kranjska Gora and Julian Alps. When the 15 km route starts making its way towards the finish line is where your hardest climb awaits – a 10 km climb towards Trupejevo poldne, which will take up a lot of your energy, but reward you with views, which are hard to describe. The route then takes you across the Karavanke ridge, right on the border between Austria and Slovenia, towards Blekova planina, where a daredevil downhill is waiting to take you to the finish line in Kranjska Gora. There will be many stunning views of not only Julian Alps, but also Austrian mountains and valleys.
