Kranjskogorska 10ka, Slovenia - 10k runners on the cycleway between Kranjska Gora and Rateče (Copyright © 2019 Hendrik Böttger / runinternational.eu)

 

Held annually on Assumption Day (15 August), the Kranjskogorska 10ka (‘Kranjska Gora 10k’) takes runners out and back along the Upper Sava Valley between the ski resort of Kranjska Gora and Slovenia's border with Italy.

Over 250 runners took part in the 10k race last year.

The race is run on a cycleway along the valley and passes the source of the Sava Dolinka river as well as Kranjska Gora's ski pistes, including the steep Podkoren slope where the Pokal Vitranc World Cup races take place each winter.

The turnaround point is near the village of Rateče and the Planica ski jumps.

The first half of the course is slightly uphill (ca. 45 metres of ascent) and the second half is downhill.

In addition to the 10k race, the event offers two races for children.

 

The route begins and ends in Kranjska Gora.
