Camping FAQ

"Who is the camp suitable for?"

We designed the Cesta na Štvanec running camp to be beneficial for everyone, regardless of age or fitness level.

Individuals: Come clear your head and find a new running group. In a community of like-minded people, you will gain the motivation you may have been missing at home.

Couples and friends: Share your experiences on the track and over an evening glass of wine. An ideal active holiday for couples who want to combine sport with relaxation.

Families with children: A unique concept where you don't have to sacrifice family time. While you train with Matej Tóth, the children are royally taken care of in our children's zones.

"Won't I be the slowest there?"

The camp is for everyone. We divide groups according to performance, so you can run with both the elite and those who are just starting out.

"My legs/back hurt when I run."

That's why podiatrist Denisa Mertl is here. She'll show you how to choose the right shoes and how your feet affect your overall strength.

"Do I have to take a vacation?"

Not at all, if you know how to work out of office. We are open from 08:00 to 14:00 open Office, where you can calmly check your emails, and in the afternoon you can fully devote yourself to camping.

"I'm only running 5 km at a 7:00 pace, won't I be a drag?"

Absolutely not! The camp is divided into groups according to performance. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned angler, you will find your group.

"Can I come with my family?"

Yes! While you train, the family enjoys the resort, the FUN Center and the animations. You are together in the evening.
