Park utca marks the beginning, signaling a genuine trail run rather than a city race. The path ascends Strand utca, proceeds along Római út towards Badacsonytomaj Nagykörút, and then directs you towards Badacsony. The Balaton Uplands National Park shapes the environment and the terrain. For the Tanúhegyek Trail Minimaraton, the setting is characterized by autumn hills, prominent mountains, and expansive views of Lake Balaton when conditions permit.
The course is designed to be challenging, with sufficient turns and elevation changes to test participants. The route proceeds outward on streets, transitions to a trail feel, and concludes at the Halászkert finish. The description “fog, damp cold” accurately captures the ambiance, suggesting appropriate attire for running in November hills. Participants are drawn to the Balaton-felvidék colors and the opportunity to summit a witness mountain. Additionally, the shorter race accommodates dogs, and a portion of the chip deposit fee is donated to the Ürömi Animal Shelter, supporting a charitable cause.
