Horokros 2026

Horokros - Chlapák is a cross-country race held in Šumperk, Czech Republic, each October. It is organized by the Horal Šumperk association. The primary race covers 15.5 km with 418 m of elevation gain, presenting a hilly forest course rather than a flat road race. Participants begin near SOU Šumperk, with the majority of the route crossing forest terrain, incorporating both paved paths and narrower trails. The main group starts simultaneously, and a shorter 2.9 km race, known as Prcek, is also available. This event has taken place annually since 1984; the current running marks its 40th edition.
