The Trail Praha is a multi-terrain running event staged annually on Petřín, a green hill in the city centre of Prague, capital of the Czech Republic.

Two race options are available for participants: 5km (one lap) and 10km (two laps). Each lap includes about 160 metres of ascent.

Starting and finishing near the top of the hill, the race is run on mixed terrain (asphalt, cobbles, trails and stairs) through lovely parks, gardens, woods and orchards.

The route passes various sights such as the Petřín Lookout Tower, the medieval Hunger Wall and the imposing Strahov Monastery (pictured below). It also offers fabulous views of Prague Castle and of the picturesque Malá Strana quarter.

The race forms part of the Trail Running Cup, a series of multi-terrain running events held annually in Czechia.
