Fourth Soča Outdoor Festival

Fourth Soča Outdoor Festival thrilled outdoor sports enthusiasts



On the main part of the Soča Outdoor Festival, around 700 running enthusiasts gathered last weekend, proving their endurance on three different trail runs. The active happenings at the confluence of the crystal-clear green rivers Tolminka and Soča were further enlivened by adidas, the official sponsor of the festival.



The fourth Soča Outdoor Festival took over a large crowd in Tolmin last weekend, consisting of trail running enthusiasts, adrenaline sports lovers, and other outdoor sports followers.



Luka Kramarič wins the adidas Trail Run for the third time in a row



Runners who set off on the forest running trail could choose between tackling the 46-kilometer, 15-kilometer, or 10-kilometer distance. The most attention was drawn by the 15-kilometer adidas Trail Run, where 22-year-old Luka Kramarič, an athlete from adidas ranks, won with a time of 1:07:07.8, celebrating victory on this trail for the third time in a row. He claimed the medal in adidas Terrex Agravic shoes, which festival visitors also tested on the spot. The official sponsor adidas enabled testing and rental of various footwear and equipment models for the competition at the adidas Outdoor truck.



Among those who completed the 15 kilometers of the adidas Trail Run are also fashion blogger Tjaša Kokalj and her readers, who successfully passed the final test as part of the "Fashion Bloggers Run with adidas" project. The girls bravely crossed the Tolminka River in the final stretch and proudly ran the finish straightaway, where fashion bloggers Ajda Sitar and Tesa Jurjaševič, participants in the project, awaited them.



The atmosphere was charged with positive energy, adrenaline, and dynamics



The tense and fun atmosphere continued even after the kilometers run, as the guys from Slovenian Parkour Family showed off their dynamic skills by the Soča River. Using natural elements, trees, and rocks, they amazed the festival crowd with superhuman leaps, jumps, and flips in parkour style, and at the end, with their help, performed the last adrenaline feats.



Satisfied and full of positive energy, the festival participants ended the day by the water, where some danced to the rhythm of the music, while others indulged in enjoying the beautiful nature under the starry sky of the Soča Valley.
