Dynamic course with best views of the valley
With its two significant climbs and distance of app. 30 km, the course is seen as a midway step between half and full marathon, but it's only part of the picture.
This course takes what's demanding from Wielka Prehyba (44) and what's beautiful from Hardy Rolling (13) and adds up a unique section where no other trail wanders. The link between parts known from other courses is the most scenic downhill on south slopes of Przehyba with magnificent views over Pieniny and Tatra mountains.
The link is also a trap for road runners. After long 8 km downhill there is another uphill waiting. So slow your horses, because you might still need them.
