10 km FORD Fox Trail
May 30, 2026 at 10:30 – Kočevje, Slovenia
“In the forest, there is no single path. If you know how to adapt, observe, and choose the right moment, the trails of the Kočevje forests will guide you forward.” — The Kočevje fox
The 10 km FORD Fox Trail is an easy, circular trail route that takes you from the open area by Lake Kočevje deeper into the Kočevje forests. It is designed for runners who are new to trail running, as well as for anyone who wants to experience the forest at a moderate, flowing pace.
The course runs across meadows, forest singletracks, and forest roads, without technically demanding sections. The elevation gain is moderate, and the pace allows you to enjoy the natural surroundings and the feeling of moving through a diverse landscape.

Aid stations
We are trying to reduce negative effects of the festival on the environment, therefore cups for one-time use will not be available at the water stations and feed zones. We ask runners to bring their own cup, bottle or a camel bag to use it at water stations and fit zones for water and energy drinks.
There will be one (2) aid station at our 10 km race.
