The 14K course is one of the most beautiful trails in the north-eastern part of the Belgrad Forest. It starts on a relatively wide road and then continues to wind along forest trails and paths, sometimes only shoulder-wide, and across hilly terrain. Green valleys and challenging hill climbs, gentle descends and breathtaking surprise views - you’ll want to run this course again again. The soft forest ground requires a steady step and can be quite muddy on wet days.
It’s quite a challenge! In fact, the 14K course can be as strenuous as running a half marathon distance in a road race - you’ll need to adjust your pacing strategy and energy requirements accordingly. Total elevation gain and loss along the course is 350 m.
