15 km SPORT VISION Lynx Trail
15 km SPORT VISION Lynx Trail
May 30, 2026 at 10:00 – Kočevje, Slovenia
“Listen. Here the Kočevje forest grows denser and quieter. Every step demands attention, every breath focus. Don’t force yourself into the space—just pass through it quietly.” — Kočevje Lynx
The 15 km SPORT VISION Lynx Trail takes you deeper into the forests of Kočevje. This is the first course where the forest is no longer a backdrop, but the terrain itself. Designed for runners who already know the trail rhythm and want more forest, more variation, and a stronger sense of wilderness.
The start and finish are at Kočevje Lake. The opening section is smooth and flowing, then the course transitions into denser forest with soft ground and narrow trails that demand focused running. No technical extremes, but varied enough to keep you fully engaged.
There are two aid stations on the course (at 3.6 km and 11 km). The final section brings you back out of the forest into open space and the energy of the finish line.
Suitable for regular & occasional runners | More forest, more true trail feeling | Varied terrain without technically demanding sections

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 two (2) aid stations at the 15 kilometres race.
