Below you can find the list of trainings available. The "top running speed" was estimated from winning times of Men Elite courses at OO.cup in each particular terrain.

Notranjska-Primorska region is rather big and for easier planning the trainings in this section are divided in 3 macro areas, according to accommodation that we offer - Nova Gorica area, Postojna area and Idrija area. Many of the trainings can be easily reached from all 3 centers, but are listed under the one to which they are closest.
