Against the backdrop of the shimmering Adriatic Sea, the OBALA Ultra Trail offers a dramatic and thrilling test of endurance.
The course begins in the heart of Izola, from where you ascend through vineyards, under the cover of ancient olive groves, to the highest peaks of the Slovenian coastline.
Along the journey, the gleaming Adriatic Sea offers a stunning contrast to the wild, rocky trails. Anticipate the thrill of cresting the summit of Kokoš, the highest point of the course, where the endless expanse of the sea and mountains unfolds beneath you.
The OBALA Ultra Trail features five race distances: 11k, 17k, 35k, 64k, and 108k.
