INFORMATION FOR PARTICIPANTS
General Information
The Sokol Run of the Republic in Prague will take place in a LARGE RACE format. This means that time is measured by professional timekeeping. At the finish line, the organizers will award the fastest runners. But every participant will get something to enjoy! What can you look forward to? At the facilities, everyone can pick up their starter pack with a bib number and other gifts from the organizers and partners. A beautiful medal in the shape of the republic awaits everyone at the finish line.
Runners can look forward to facilities at Tyršův dům (Tyrš House), where the entire accompanying program will take place. Various sports and non-sports activities will be prepared for children. Adult runners will also find something for themselves. The main race route goes through Petřínské sady (Petřín Park), where, in addition to beautiful views of Prague, runners can expect surprises along the route. The children's categories will run a flat route in Kampa Park.
Main Route
➤ Adults 5.6 km
The main race begins with a group walk from Tyrš House to the starting point in Hellichova street. Immediately after the start, runners will be tested by a climb to the Petřínské terasy restaurant. The route then passes under the funicular and enters a series of switchbacks, offering runners beautiful views of Prague. The path continues upward to the picturesque pond with the seal statue, from where runners will head below the Petřín Lookout Tower and on towards the Great Strahov Garden. The return journey will take them past Vojíř's Adit, and after passing the Petřínské terasy restaurant again, only a well-deserved descent to the finish in Hellichova street awaits. The route is suitable for experienced runners as well as amateurs who want to enjoy the atmosphere of the Sokol Run of the Republic and celebrate the founding of the republic with movement.
