Fő tér provides this race with a town-square start before heading into the Duna-Ipoly National Park. The Duna-Ipoly Trail is direct in its aim: trail running in the Duna-Ipoly National Park region, a summer trail constructed on dirt, hills, and the landscape beyond the town.
The courses utilize trail surfaces, with a stated 1,600 m of elevation gain throughout the event, suggesting challenging legs rather than easy flat running. Offering three course options and a capacity of 700 runners, it is likely to attract participants interested in the park's trails, the early start, and a substantial day of climbing over roadside distractions.
