CONTINENTAL

Continental Trail 10km

28th June 2026 at 9.00 - Tolmin, Slovenia

The 10-kilometer challenge is for everyone – well, everyone with at least some running fitness and willpower. Since you’ve made it this far into reading, we’re willing to bet you’ll make it to the finish line too! The route includes two shorter ascents, but we spared you the climb to the very top of Tolmin Castle – instead, you’ll run along its base and then through the stunning Tolmin Gorge. And for the final stretch, if you’re feeling hot, the refreshing wade through the Tolminka River will do the trick. See? That wasn’t so bad! Next year, we’ll see you at 15K, right?
