Are you craving unique sporting thrills in a truly idyllic atmosphere? The Blueberry Run in Olchowiec is an event that perfectly combines athletic competition with a family-friendly vibe 🏃! A route leading through picturesque landscapes is pure eye-candy and a great test for your legs. Participants can look forward to the flagship main race over 10 km and a dynamic Nordic Walking march, also over 10 km 🏅. These are ideal distances to test your speed or simply spend an active day outdoors.
Olchowiec is a smaller, charming town in the Podkarpacie region, but it’s in a very convenient location – you can get to Krosno and Sanok in about 45 minutes, and to Jasło in just over half an hour 🚗. Once you’ve crossed the finish line and regained your strength, the area invites you to discover its remarkable treasures:
A time trip for the whole family: Be sure to visit the nearby Karpacka Troja Archaeological Open-Air Museum in Trzcinica 🏹. It’s a fascinating place where adults and children can see reconstructions of hillforts from thousands of years ago and feel like real explorers.
Romantic ruins and mountain views: Head to nearby Odrzykoń with your other half for a stroll through the picturesque ruins of Kamieniec Castle 🏰. These very walls inspired Aleksander Fredro to write “The Revenge”!
Purple flavors of the region: Since it’s a blueberry run, after the race you absolutely have to try local baked goods 🤔! Look in local pastry shops for traditional sweet buns or tarts with wild berries and blueberries—they taste simply incredible here.
Build up your strength, slip on your running shoes, and go claim your blueberry medal … 🏁 See you at the start!
