Is anyone ever truly ready for a
25 km trail race?
Trail legends say this distance matches the challenge of a road marathon. The I feel Slovenia Soča Outdoor Festival 25 km trail race packs over 800 meters of elevation, two scenic climbs, and enough adventure to keep your heart (and legs) pumping.
From the ruins of Tolmin Castle to the viewpoint at Mengore, every step along this trail running race brings a new view — the Julian Alps, lush meadows, and deep limestone gorges carved by the Tolminka River. By the time you splash through the Tolminka just before the finish, you’ll understand why trail running in Soča Valley isn’t just a race. It’s an experience, a mindset, and a memory you’ll carry forever.
Once your body is ready, all that
effort turns into pure joy.
Long-distance running is a long-term investment. The moment you step into the Tolminka Stream just before the finish after 25 kilometres is one you’ll carry with you forever.

Runners will receive the latest GPX files together with the race guide shortly before the event.

I am registered for a race, but I would like to change my running distance (shorter/longer). Can I do that?
Distance changes are possible until June 10, 2027, or as long as spots remain on the desired course. From June 10 until the end of the registration period (June 14, 2027), changes will be possible with an additional fee of €15.
Transfers are managed within your personal account. Access to your account was provided in your registration confirmation email. Once inside, you will see the option “Transfer to another person.”
The difference in registration fees will be calculated automatically. If additional payment is required, a payment request will be added to your shopping cart. The change will only be confirmed after payment. Please note: if you switch to a shorter distance, the difference will not be refunded.
I would like to transfer my registration to another runner. Is this possible?
Runner transfers are possible only until June 10, 2027. From that date until the end of the registration period (June 14, 2027), transfers are possible with an additional fee of €15.
