Knap Trail

The longest Knap Trail route connects three municipalities - Hrastnik, Trbovlje and Zagorje. The route will take runners along the main part of Zasavje hills where they will admire beautiful scenery above the Zasavje region. Runners will climb to an altitude of over 1000 meters three times. Although many experienced runners feel at home at 50 km distances they should not take this route for granted as this is a winter trail running event and paths are usually covered in snow.

The intermediate Knap Trail route with its length and vertical meters offers diverse and exciting trail running experience. Route starts with a long ascent, followed by a diverse running part with exhilarating shorter steep ascents and technical descents. The highest point of the route is at the top of Mrzlica which lies 1122 meters above sea level. It is a relatively fast route, although it could be really challenging in winter conditions.

Our shortest route was prepared for all nature lovers out there – for hikers, recreational runners or professional athletes. For many this will be their first trail running event and opportunity to experience that incredible feeling of crossing the finish line. More experienced runners will be able to test their limits and speed in winter conditions. There will be three aid stations along the way where you will be taken care of by our volunteers.
