The event in a few words

Welcome to Zakopane, your base camp at the foot of the Tatras—where the mountains catch your eye and the forest makes you want to speed up… even just for the fun of it 🏔️.

Tatra Fest Run is a tailor-made adventure: you pick your format and head out to play among trails, the scent of pines, and panoramas that settle things with gravity 🌲.

Want something short and spicy? The Vertical is your little concentrate of “it climbs, so it’s worth it,” perfect for giving you a story to tell the moment you cross the finish line ⚡.

Prefer a well-balanced outing? The 11 km and 22 km let you taste the best of Zakopane and the surrounding area: long enough to feel far away, accessible enough to enjoy the scenery instead of just enduring it 🧭.

And after the effort, I’ll guide you just a stone’s throw from the start: head to Krupówki for the atmosphere, terraces, and folklore, stop by Gubałówka for a view that’s easy to love, and take a turn through the Pęksowy Brzyzek cemetery for a surprising, very local interlude. ✨

If you’re staying an extra day, treat yourself to a walk up to Morskie Oko (the big classic that works every time) or a relaxing moment at the Chochołów Thermal Baths, perfect as a couple or with family to loosen up your legs without pushing too hard. 💧

In short: you come to run at altitude, you leave with Zakopane under your skin and the feeling of having traveled far… without ever losing the thread of your passion. 🌍
