6. DYCHA POD KROKWIĄ 2026

Looking for a race with character, elevation… and a seriously awesome mountain vibe? 6. DYCHA POD KROKWIĄ is Zakopane in sporty mode: you run at the foot of the Tatras, where the air is crisp and the scenery makes you feel like you’re moving through a postcard 🏔️.

Here, you choose your format: 5 km to enjoy yourself without burning out, or 10 km to chase that extra little thrill. And since the event is at night, you’ll discover the town from another angle: the lights, the occasional silence, and that “special outing” feeling that changes everything 🌙.

My local tip: arrive a bit early, take the time to soak up the atmosphere, and keep your eyes everywhere. In Zakopane, even before the start, you already feel like saying “again” (and not only about the race) 🔦.

After you finish, don’t head straight back to the hotel: keep the fun going just a stone’s throw from the center. Go wander along Krupówki (the liveliest street), head up to the Wielka Krokiew ski jump for the grand scenery, treat yourself to a panoramic view from Gubałówka, or take a walk toward Kuźnice to feel the mountains close by. And if you want a truly royal recovery, the Chochołów thermal baths are perfect for loosening up your legs 💦.

As a duo or with the family, it’s simple: you run, you enjoy, you grab something hot to eat afterward, and you go to bed feeling like you’ve done Zakopane properly. A 10K under the Tatras is something you can tell people about… but above all, it’s something you have to experience! ✨
