Welcome to the Archipelago Trail Run!
Island trail rhythm. The sea in every stride. A weekend in motion.
Archipelago Trail Run 2026 invites you to the third edition of an island trail run that follows the coastline, climbs the ridges, and returns to the sea. Adriatic trails, open views, and a Mediterranean atmosphere create an experience where the rhythm of running naturally blends with the rhythm of the archipelago.
The trails wind through the Zadar Archipelago, along the edges of Telašćica Nature Park, and above the deep blue of Kornati National Park. A landscape that opens the view and calms the pace.
The weekend follows the island way. Two stages, three days, three islands – Dugi Otok, Ugljan and Pašman. The event format lets you choose your rhythm: one stage on Saturday or Sunday, or both stages combined into a connected two-day trail story. Distances from 10 to 70 km allow you to choose your line, length, and intensity. Each day brings its own island story.
The heart of the event lives by the sea. Running during the day, local food and Dalmatian music in the evening. Three route options each day: Short (10 km), Middle (22 / 25 km), Long (35 km). The weekend opens with Friday’s Vertical – a short, direct encounter with elevation and views.
In the rhythm of the archipelago, we meet again in October 2026 – by the sea, on the trails, and in a great vibe.
