Botanical Five Kielce 2026

Time for a special start where sporting competition mixes with the scent of blooming nature 💪! Botanical Five Kielce is the perfect opportunity to test your form on exceptionally charming, green paths. The main highlight is the fast and highly spectacular 5 km distance, which is perfect for smashing PBs or as a joyful, recreational run at any time of year (and day!)⏱️.

Kielce and the picturesque Świętokrzyskie Mountains are a true paradise for explorers, so after picking up a beautiful medal be sure to plan the rest of the day 🥇. Together with your family or your better half you can put together a fantastic time:

Discover Kadzielnia Nature Reserve – located almost in the center of Kielce, a former quarry with an underground tourist route, caves and a spectacular amphitheater is an absolute hit 🧗.

Visit the monumental Palace of the Kraków Bishops – this wonderfully preserved Baroque residence, together with the surrounding Italian Garden, is the perfect place for a dignified, romantic walk 🏰.

Head to Święty Krzyż (Holy Cross) – located about a 40-minute drive from Kielce, the second-highest peak of the Świętokrzyskie Mountains with a historic monastery and famous scree fields—it's a great destination for a family trip 🌳.

Try traditional Świętokrzyskie zalewajka – this iconic, aromatic soup made with homemade sourdough starter, potatoes and bacon will brilliantly restore your strength after any effort 🥣.

Kielce is a charming city surrounded by mountains that delights with its location. If you're planning a weekend visit, remember that in just a little over an hour by car you can get from here to Radom or Kraków, which makes it possible to create a brilliant sightseeing route. Lace up your shoes and feel the natural rhythm of running 👟!
