This 20 and 21 January, you have the chance to witness the revival of this poignant tradition. It’s not just a race, but a powerful celebration of Slovene patriotism, and a moment to connect with a story of resilience and courage.
Whether you’re a sports enthusiast, a history buff, or simply curious about Slovenia’s rich heritage, this event offers something for everyone. From the excitement of the race itself to a traveling exhibition across nearby towns, it’s a chance to engage with a significant chapter of history. And to top it off, Slovenia’s national postal service will release a special stamp commemorating this event in May.
