12th Nimfea Fortress Trail Run

About this event

The Nimfea Fortress Trail Run ventures into the rugged terrain near Komotini in northeastern Greece, where ancient history meets challenging mountain paths. This November event offers a substantial 40km route with 2000 metres of elevation gain, winding through landscapes dotted with fortress ruins and traditional villages. The course demands solid trail experience as runners navigate technical sections and sustained climbs through the Rhodope foothills. Late autumn conditions add an extra dimension, with crisp air and dramatic skies enhancing the wild character of these lesser-known Greek mountains. It's a serious undertaking that rewards prepared runners with authentic trails far from the usual racing circuits.
