Runners can choose to run on one of the five trails that take you along the streets of the medieval city centre of Kamnik. The start and the finish of the run are at the Main Square, the runners make four circles around Šutna, the Kolodvorska street, the Šlakar path, Žale, and then through the Medvedova street back to the start-finish plane. The entire path is paved and includes approximately 100 metres of ascent and 200 metres of descent. Taking part of the competition are also the Kamnik elementary and high school students, for whom an open school festival is organized as part of Veronika’s run, where the students can compete for the title of the champion of the municipality.
