Kresowe Trail Siemiatycze 2027

Fancy a running adventure in a place where time moves more slowly and nature impresses with its wildness at every turn? Kresowe Trail Siemiatycze is an incredibly atmospheric cross-country event, and one of the greenest and most picturesque stops in the popular borderland running series in Podlasie 🏅! The race route leads along charming forest paths, rolling terrain, and trails around the Siemiatycze reservoirs. A true Podlasie trail awaits you here – natural obstacles, soft ground, the scent of a pine forest, and varied distances that will guarantee great fun and a proper workout 🏁.

Siemiatycze is a charming, multicultural town located in the southern part of the Podlaskie Voivodeship, near the picturesque gorge of the Bug River. The location guarantees easy access: from Białystok or Siedlce you can get here in about an hour, from Bielsk Podlaski in 40 minutes, and from Warsaw in under two hours 🚗. Once you proudly cross the finish line and hang your commemorative medal around your neck, Siemiatycze and the surrounding area will invite you to a brilliant weekend of relaxation:

Water fun and family relaxation on site: The runners’ village and the city’s recreational heart beat by the Siemiatycze Reservoirs (the Kamianka River) 🌊. After the run, be sure to stay here longer with your loved ones. You’ll find beautifully developed beaches, a pier, modern playgrounds, and water-sports equipment rentals. It’s the perfect place to catch your breath after the sporting excitement.

A romantic trip to the Holy Mountain of Grabarka: Just a dozen or so minutes from Siemiatycze lies Holy Mount Grabarka ⛪ – the most important place of religious worship for Orthodox Christians in Poland. A walk up the wooded hill, surrounded by thousands of votive wooden crosses, creates an incredible, mystical impression and encourages deep calm. It’s an ideal spot for a peaceful walk for two and an effortless way to loosen up your legs.

Discovering Podlasie’s Drohiczyn: Take a trip to nearby Drohiczyn – the historic capital of Podlasie 🏰. Climb Castle Hill, from which you can admire one of the most beautiful and spectacular views of the meandering valley of the Bug River. Drohiczyn also captivates with its charming architecture and cinematic vibe.

A Podlasie feast for a hungry runner: A cross-country run in clean air will drain a lot of energy from you, which means it’s time for merciless calorie loading 🤔! In local inns, be sure to order the local hits: hearty kartacze stuffed with meat, crispy Siemiatycze korowaj (if you manage to find this traditional baked treat), or the classic potato babka and kiszka, generously topped with cracklings.

Get your trail shoes ready, charge up with positive Kresy energy, and report to the starting line … 🌲 Siemiatycze is waiting for your big run!
