class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">In the magical So\u010da Valley in western Slovenia, on the edge of Triglav National Park, we loved running long before the first So\u010da Outdoor Festival. Can you believe that back then we didn\u2019t even realize what a privilege it was? This stunning nature, the pebbly beaches, the crystal-clear So\u010da River and Tolminka River, and all those winding trails across meadows and through forests \u2013 we fall in love with them more and more every year. Also because we keep rediscovering them through your eyes, full of passion for the outdoors. That\u2019s why we invite you to take more than just those few hours that the trail running race lasts. Stay in the So\u010da Valley for at least three days, or better yet, for an entire week during the So\u010da Outdoor Festival. Your legs might be tired, but your mind will be rested, and your soul filled with beauty after meeting so many natural wonders.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-d52d13c2 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\r\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Soca Valley -- Dolina So\u010de --  Valle dell&#039;Isonzo -- So\u010da Tal\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mQE_1m9m14U?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\r\n<\/div><\/figure><br>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-046c1faa wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium)\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s hard to imagine a better setting for a sports festival. The confluence of two alpine rivers, the So\u010da and the Tolminka, creates a magical point where everything flows together. The first river offers sandy and pebbly beaches, swimming, and SUP adventures all the way to the lake at Most na So\u010di. The second river provides the most spectacular and refreshing trail running race finish \u2013 yes, you\u2019ll actually wade through the Tolminka to cross the finish line. There\u2019s also an option to run across the hanging bridge, but only a few runners take it. Just 200 meters above the confluence lies the festival\u2019s main area with registration, a tent for hot meals, a sports expo, showers, and toilets. Another 200 meters west you\u2019ll find our campsite, and about 300 meters toward Tolmin there\u2019s a parking area.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-container-core-group-is-layout-337c1fef wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover is-light\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;min-height:670px;aspect-ratio:unset;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-4774 size-full\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/soca-outdoor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/lokacija_soca.jpg\" data-object-fit=\"cover\"\/><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim-0 has-background-dim\" style=\"background-color:#869a8a\"><\/span><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"main-container\">\n<div class=\"content\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-b7f8dff6 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-18b2aa03 grid-mobile-full\">\n<div class=\"content \">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group content quater-gap mobile-full has-global-padding is-content-justification-left is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-d058d937 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The So\u010da Valley:<br\/>a home for adventurers of every kind<br\/><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">The So\u010da trail leads you along a river that keeps changing its face with every step. No matter the length of your race, part of your route will follow the So\u010da River. This river, praised by Slovenian poet Simon Gregor\u010di\u010d in his famous poem To the So\u010da, shows many moods: from the surreal narrow gorges in Trenta, to the wild rapids around Bovec, to the calm lake near Most na So\u010di. Let the emerald queen be the main thread of your active holiday in western Slovenia \u2013 experience her by rafting, SUP, on foot or by bike.<br\/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-element-18977a6d\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/soca-outdoor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/lokacija_image_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4780\" style=\"object-fit:cover\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-e002b6f9 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large)\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-815818fc grid-mobile-full\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-35f1dfa1\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/soca-outdoor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/lokacija_image_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4778\" style=\"object-fit:cover\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"content \">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group content quater-gap mobile-full has-global-padding is-content-justification-left is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-b9bda6fb wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tolmin Gorges:<br\/>a hidden confluence carved in rock<br\/><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Almost all races (except the vertical run, kids\u2019 race, and the 5 km run) lead through the magical Tolmin Gorges, across small wooden bridges that connect steep rocky walls carved by water over centuries. The Tolmin Gorges are one of those places where less competitive runners usually slow down and pull out their phones to capture a photo. And that\u2019s fine \u2013 but we warmly recommend you give this place more than just a few minutes, perhaps together with your family. By the way, where the Zadla\u0161\u010dica meets the Tolminka, you\u2019ll find the lowest point of Triglav National Park, just 180 m above sea level.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"main-container\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;min-height:670px;aspect-ratio:unset;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-4782 size-full\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/soca-outdoor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/lokacija_tolmin.jpg\" style=\"object-position:48% 59%\" data-object-fit=\"cover\" data-object-position=\"48% 59%\"\/><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim-0 has-background-dim\"><\/span><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"main-container\">\n<div class=\"content\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-e002b6f9 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large)\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-f5ce50d7 grid-mobile-full\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-6923c068\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/soca-outdoor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/lokacija_image_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4810\" style=\"object-fit:cover\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"content \">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group content quater-gap mobile-full has-global-padding is-content-justification-left is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-b9bda6fb wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hiking:<br\/>climb your way to heaven<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Slovenians are known for their love of mountains, and our hiking trails, connecting panoramic peaks and mountain huts, are well maintained and safely marked.
