Ljubuški Outdoor Festival

The scenes that the Half Marathon Two Waterfalls provides to participants guarantee an enjoyable experience of one of the most beautiful half marathons in the region. The race begins amidst the picturesque landscape near the Koćuša waterfall, providing relaxation even to the most tense competitors. Running along the first half of the course alongside the Trebižat River, through the "Bajer" embankment in the Ljubuško polje, will create an unforgettable experience for all outdoor enthusiasts.

The archaeological heritage, which has been partly neglected or underutilized, will be brought back into the societal focus through this festival, shedding light on institutions responsible for the preservation and presentation of cultural and historical treasures. Particularly noteworthy is the revival of the oldest Ljubuški toponym, Pagus Scunasticus, known from an ancient monument that speaks about the establishment of a Roman veteran settlement in the 15th year. For this reason, the title of this race is named after the mentioned toponym, and the race starts from the Roman military settlement Bigeste in Gračine.

Stipe is a very good friend of Mara, so he keeps her company for a few kilometers. He starts from the Koćuša waterfalls, cycles 600 meters on asphalt, and then descends onto a dirt road where, after 1 km, he crosses the main road with caution and joins our embankment – the "bajer" (dam) – and goes downstream. However, our Stipe is a bit capricious and leaves Mara at 7 km to continue his own race. The excitement offered by the "STIPE" trail lies in the attractive and challenging terrain of the Butorovice hill, where all participants will experience beautiful and thrilling moments. See you there!

Mara prefers a smooth ride on asphalt and isn't a big fan of steep inclines. Keeping that in mind, the race from waterfall to waterfall for Mara has a minimal elevation gain of 92 meters. The terrain consists of a mix of asphalt and a fine gravel embankment. The easygoing terrain provided by "MARA" will offer cyclists unforgettable pleasures as they ride along the Trebižat River, through Ljubuški, to the Kravica Waterfalls. See you there!
