The route links natural and historic points around Bratislava. Early sections pass Devín Castle and the church of the Holy Cross near the confluence of the Danube and Morava. Runners move through Devínska Kobyla and the Biele skaly natural amphitheater, then continue toward Park SNP where a second aid station and relay exchange are located at about 26 km. Later segments go through Kačín, past the Kamzík chairlift and the Kamzík television tower, and across urban sites including Bratislava Calvary, memorials on Murmann Hill, Slavín, Námestie slobody, and bridges over the Danube such as Most SNP. The longest course reaches monuments on the riverside and central squares, finishing near the M. R. Štefánik memorial area.
The event highlights both forest trails in the Small Carpathians and paved city sections, offering varied terrain and multiple historical and viewpoint landmarks. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
