Run Details

Trail Camp Slovenia is our most challenging Camp, perfect for runners who are seeking a true alpine adventure!
Our routes have been carefully designed to showcase the iconic features of this stunning mountain range, including awe-inspiring gorges, cascading waterfalls, picturesque lakes, rugged peaks, and expansive alpine plateaus. Prepare for an unforgettable adventure as you embark on five incredible days of running.

Each of these days will offer an exhilarating challenge, with distances ranging between 15 - 22 kilometers (9 - 14 miles). On three of the days, vertical gains will be over 1,100 meters (3,500ft), whilst the other two days have less vert. After conquering the challenging climbs, you'll have the opportunity to reward yourself at the high-altitude cafes, where you can indulge in a well-deserved cup of coffee and savor the delicious local specialty of apple strudel!
