Persenk Ultra 2023 2026

In the Rhodope Mountains, this trail festival follows a rhythm set by the terrain, marking it as one of Bulgaria's key trail running events. It reflects the spirit, culture, and natural beauty of an old mountain region, providing an atmosphere of a long day in nature, not a city race against time. The course is mountainous, with ascents and descents that challenge the legs in both directions, ensuring each climb has its own character. Runners from around the world gather, building a community of individuals who value rocks, trails, and long hours outdoors, knowing the Rhodopes require patience, endurance, and mindfulness beyond aid station support.
