Ohrid Trcat

Celebrate a decade of athletic inspiration at Ohrid trcaT 2026, the 10th-anniversary edition of the Ohrid Running Weekend, taking place from June 5–7, 2026. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Lake Ohrid, one of Europe’s oldest and deepest lakes, this event has grown into a premier international sporting festival. Whether you are a professional athlete competing for the podium or a recreational runner soaking in the "pearl of the Balkans," the 2026 weekend promises the same high-octane energy that has defined the race for ten years, uniting thousands under the theme: "We run together, we grow together."

The 2026 program features a versatile array of races to suit every level of ambition. On Sunday, June 7, the flagship 21K Half Marathon kicks off at 08:15 AM, catering to professional runners with an AIMS-certified course that winds through the historic streets and scenic lakeside. For those who prefer a shorter challenge, the 5K Race begins at 09:00 AM, focusing on friendship, health, and a vibrant community atmosphere. Unique to the Ohrid experience are the Half-Marathon Relay (pairs running 11km and 10km) and the highly popular Team Building Races, which encourage corporate spirit and social affirmation without national or racial connotations.

Participants at Ohrid trcaT enjoy world-class amenities and a comprehensive starting packet that includes dry-fit apparel, insurance, and professional GetPica photo services. The weekend is a full cultural immersion, featuring a Friday night Pasta Party, guided tours of Ohrid’s Old Town, and a recovery zone with post-race massages. With official accommodation partners like the Hotel & Spa Inex Olgica and City Palace, runners can enjoy luxury stays just steps from the promenade. Registration for the 2026 milestone edition is now open—secure your spot to be part of the story that continues to inspire the global running community.
