ABOUT US
The city of Tuzla, with its terrain configuration, belongs to the valley towns located in the valley of the river Jala, with its slope settlements concentrated on the hills that surround the city. In addition to the surrounding hills with an altitude below 500m, the city partly extends on the slopes of the mountain Majevica, whose altitude is about 800m. By exploring the terrain, enthusiasts gathered in the story of Tuzla trail running, recognized the advantages of the configuration of the hilly terrain around the city. After a planty of training runs in nature, on established hiking trails, we have noticed that the configuration of the terrain with its elevation and natural background can be categorized as excellent running trails.
The tourist offer of the city of Tuzla has been significantly enriched by the engagement of enthusiasts gathered in Tuzla Trail. They have created a catalog of marked and mapped trails, especially since trail running is currently gaining popularity in the region and the world. One of the ways to promote trail running and the potential of the city of Tuzla is the organization of the Tuzla Trail League, for local and runners from the region. With organisation of Tuzla Trail League we wanted to animate a larger number of participants who will learn the basics of trail running, and witness the beautiful forest trails outside the city crowds, and finally to introduce the always accepted competitive spirit. So we already have 5 seasons successfully completed behind us. TTL 2017-2021
In fact, from center of the city, with very little running on asphalt surfaces, you can very quickly step on one of our running trails, mostly marked with mountaineering stamps or our Tuzla trail league stamps. In our trails catalog, each track, in addition of basic information, contains a map of movement, elevation, downloadable map for use via GPS watches or smartphones. All trails are available for everyone with or without guides provided by Tuzla Trail team.
The first official organization of the Tuzla trail league takes us to 2017, July 23rd, when the 1st round of the TT league was officially held, on the "KLUPA & OSMICA" course. After 2017, all the following years we held the competitions. During races and trail runs we usually take a lot of photos and videos of our lovely nature and our hard core runners. There are a huge collection of photos and videos taken in different weather conditions. It's hard to say what looks better. Sunshine, clouds, rain, snow, fog, moonlights ... they all look fantastic in trails.
The Tuzla Trail provides organization of night trainings/races, which requires a more serious approach of the organizers, but certainly an opportunity for beginners in trail running to fill a special experience of night running in the woods. As a special test of strength and mountain running for runners is our Tuzla Hills Ultra Trail Marathon, wich take a place on the trek with length of 45km and elevation of 1650m. At the end of the race, all participants receive the title of ultra trail runner, which is in any case an additional motive for participation in the race, for local runners and guests from the region.
