For this sprint distance through the beautiful Rhodopes, the runners start from the center of Zlatograd.

After the start, the runners enter the forest and begin moving along a scenic eco-trail, parts of which are located directly on the border line. After about 6 km, they reach the St. Kostadin aid station, where it is time for a short break and refreshments with authentic Rhodopean delicacies, specially prepared for them – patatnik, stuffed vine leaves, klin, and more.

From the chapel, the runners continue along the border again, following picturesque trails and meadows above the beautiful Zlatograd dam. They cross the river at the dam and begin a slight ascent towards the third chapel on this route – St. Ekaterina.

From there, only two more kilometers remain until the finish line, a section shared by all distances.

Great things happen when people and mountains meet!
