🟢Route Summary
5k In The Highland
is a short but impressive mountain trail that begins at the foot of Mount Sandras. The run finds its rhythm on gentle paths that lead from wide open spaces towards the Monumental Forests. The slight incline in the first kilometre quickly immerses runners in the mountain atmosphere, while the undulating profile in the middle section offers a fast-paced and enjoyable flow. The final section, with its steep descent and straight stretch, provides an opportunity to accelerate freely towards the finish line.
The route, which runs on dirt paths, is ideal for both beginners and experienced runners looking to test their speed over short distances. Despite its brevity, the cool breeze of the plateau, the open views and the natural texture of the Monumental Forests provide an unforgettable, light and refreshing running experience.
