The race takes place under lights on a Saturday evening at the Central Sports Centre and Olympic Preparation Centre in Zakopane, with the start and finish at the foot of the Średnia Krokiew ski jumping complex on ul. Bronisława Czecha 1. Runners cover 2.5 km loops, twice for the 5 km and four times for the 10 km, on illuminated paths that blend mountain and street running with steep climbs and descents. The route suits both hill runners and road runners who want to sample what the steep gradients feel like. Every finisher receives a commemorative medal, with special awards for the leading men and women and for the age-group categories, plus spot prizes drawn from lucky race numbers.
