Liberec, Czech Republic, and the Jizera Mountains as seen from Ještěd (Copyright © 2019 Hendrik Böttger / runinternational.eu)

 

The Liberec Nature Run takes runners into the Jizerské hory (Jizera Mountains) which rise to the east of Liberec, a city of over 100,000 people, located in the northern part of the Czech Republic, near the borders with Germany and Poland.

Entrants can choose between two multi-terrain races, 12km and 22km long, starting at the Town Hall on náměstí Dr. Edvarda Beneše, the main square in the Old Town (pictured below).

Both routes are very hilly and scenic loops, passing the zoo and a granite quarry. The 22km route also visits two reservoirs, the small Vodní nádrž Rudolfov and the much bigger Vodní nádrž Bedřichov which is situated at 775 metres above sea level.

The start/finish area is at an elevation of 374 metres.

The event also offers children's races and a 1-mile run for everybody.
