Run Fast, Explore Slowly

Visit Julian Alps

The Julian Alps offer a unique running experience, taking you through pristine nature, stunning panoramas, and diverse alpine trails. During the Julian Alps Trail Run, you can test your running abilities while also discovering the cultural and natural treasures of the region.

The Julian Alps feature a diverse landscape, including waterfalls, lakes, forests, and alpine meadows. The terrain ranges from gentle forest trails to technical ascents, allowing you to challenge yourself regardless of your running level. But the region offers much more than running trails; explore cultural landmarks, taste local delicacies, and discover hidden gems often overlooked.

When you’re not running, you can explore the Julian Alps at a slower pace via the Juliana Trail, or, if you are cyclists, on the Juliana Bike routes, offering spectacular views and challenges for all levels.

The Julian Alps Trail Run routes take you through several stunning destinations:

  • Kranjska Gora: Enjoy alpine panoramas, hiking and running trails, visit Zelenci, Planica, or hike up Vitranc and surrounding peaks. Kranjska Gora offers a perfect blend of nature and sport that will impress you.
  • Bled: Explore the iconic lake with its island and castle, walking paths, and local culinary delights such as Bled Cream Cake. Bled is ideal for post-run relaxation or cultural discovery.
  • Radovljica: Stroll through the historic old town, experience cultural heritage and beekeeping, or join workshops and visit galleries. Radovljica connects you to history and local traditions.
  • Žirovnica: Discover peaceful alpine valleys, waterfalls, mountain trails, and traditional villages. Perfect for walking, hiking, or cycling along less crowded paths.

The entire Julian Alps region offers a combination of sports, relaxation, and cultural experiences. The Julian Alps Trail Run gives you the opportunity to challenge yourself on running trails or explore destinations at your own pace, enjoying all the beauty the Alps have to offer.
