Patrol Graniczny 2027

Patrol Graniczny 7 begins and ends in Opawa, a village in Gmina Lubawka, Lower Silesia, situated by the Polish-Czech border in the Sudetes. This non-commercial event caters to hikers, runners, and mountain bikers, offering routes of approximately 20-22 km or 50-53 km. The name reflects the event's nature: it is a border patrol through mountain terrain rather than a straightforward race against time. The course departs Opawa into the forest tracks of Kamienna Góra County, crossing quieter sections of the Karkonosze Mountains. The longer route incorporates the Polish-Czech border crossing, ascents towards Czupiel, the remote Lasocki Ridge, and the Wzgórza Bramy Lubawskiej, known for its steep ascents and descents. Participants travel from locations like Jelenia Góra, Wrocław, Kamienna Góra, and Poznań, comprising club runners, walkers, cyclists, beginners, couples, and families, fostering a mountain-centric atmosphere with minimal pressure.
