BĚHEJ LESY ŽELEZNÁ RUDA
A new race, but we are heading to Šumava again. The deep forests and groves there enchanted us, just as they enchant you. We will start from the village of Špičák, and on the way we will have a few nutritious hills and runs. The biggest attractions of the race are clearly the Šumava glacial lakes. The routes will take you to Černý and Čertova jezero, so a truly extraordinary experience awaits you. Come to the premiere of the race in Železná Ruda!
