Krakonosova Stovka 2026

Krakonošova stovka begins and ends in Vrchlabí, a mountain town in the Hradec Králové Region of the Czech Republic, with routes entering Krkonoše Mountains National Park. Conflicting information exists regarding the season, with some sources listing June and others late September, so participants should verify the organizer’s schedule before making travel plans. It is a nature trail race and long-distance march offering several options: B25 approximately 24-25 km, K55/K50 approximately 52-55 km, and K100 as the longest route. The K100 presents the primary challenge: one description states it is 92 km with 3,200 m of elevation gain, while another refers to it as a 100 km route with a 24-hour time limit. The shorter courses allow hikers and trail runners to engage with the Krkonoše terrain without undertaking the full day-and-night effort. The event is also listed in the UTMB Index, relevant for runners seeking qualifying results, though its local character is more established and straightforward: a Czech mountain march originating from Vrchlabí.
