Hotedršica (Slovenia), Saturday 28 May 2016

Participants in the Tek prijateljstva (‘Friendship Race’) run 11.8km of a hilly circular route through a beautiful karstic landscape in Slovenia's Notranjska region.

The race begins and ends in the village of Hotedršica which is approximately 25km from the famous Postojna Caves and 40km from the capital Ljubljana.

The route runs through forests, pastures and lovely meadows, for the most part on gravel roads. The first half of the course is mainly uphill, the second half downhill. The difference between the lowest and the highest point on the course is about 150 metres.

It is also possible to do the race as a team of two (one cyclist and one runner). The bikers start off at 4.45pm, the runners at 5pm. The finishing times will be added for the kolotek (‘bikerun') result.
