The Run of 99 Towers at Moszna Castle is an event that allows you to feel like you're in a fairy tale, even though the effort on the route is very real. Imagine starting at the foot of one of the most beautiful residences in Europe, where the architecture reminiscent of Hogwarts creates an incredible backdrop for runners. The approximately ten-kilometer route leads through a vast, historic landscape park, winding between ancient oaks, azaleas, and rhododendrons, which around May, form a colorful, fragrant tunnel.
Once you cross the finish line with a view of the famous towers, the best way to recover is a slow walk on the castle terraces and orangery, where time seems to pass more slowly. If your legs need a cool down, it's worth delving into the park paths leading towards the necropolis of the von Tiele-Winckler family, to cool off after the starting emotions in peace and quiet. This place has a magic that makes the fatigue from the run give way to admiration for the craftsmanship of the old builders.
The Castle Restaurant invites you to a well-deserved runner's feast, where in historic interiors you can taste dishes of Opole cuisine, such as traditional roulade with Silesian dumplings, which perfectly replenishes energy reserves. If you're looking for deeper relaxation, the castle's hotel SPA offers baths and massages that will make you feel regal after the sporting efforts.
The Run of 99 Towers proves that sports and great history can make a perfect pair, leaving memories far more lasting than a stopwatch result!
