Valamar Trail
About Valamar Trail
From the organizers of the biggest Croatian trail race, 100 Miles of Istria, comes one more Istrian pearl – Valamar Trail. This race is, kind of, an autumnal and shorter version of it. The location is again beautiful Istria, with small coastal town of Rabac being the center of the event. You can choose from three courses: Green (11.2 km), Blue (35.1 km) and Red (61.1 km).
These courses will offer you everything from narrow single trails, coastering, deep forests, high mountain peaks, technical sections and panoramic views. Besides, finishing Blue or Red course will bring you ITRA and UTMB qualification points.
The town of Rabac is a well-known tourist location. By the middle of the 19th century, it was a small fishermen village with hardly ten houses. Due to the beautiful bay and splendid, tame surroundings, it soon attracted first visitors. In 1876, Richard Francis Burton, an English writer and a passionate traveler, was among the first tourists who stayed in Rabac. Having seen Rabac and other places on the Istrian coast, he wrote a book of the same title ‘The Istrian coast’, describing, among other things, the beauties and charm of Rabac.
