Start time of the 19.5 km Trail Race: 17:00 pm
Start Line: Kokkalia Monument at Timfristos
Course: The route starts from the memorial structure of Kokkalia, where the historical battle between the Aetolians and the Evritans against the Galatians took place, at 279 b.C. There the view of the mountains of Evrytania and especially of Velouhi is breathtaking. Running for about 400m on an asphalt road, we enter left sideways a dirt road, with a sign “Krikkelo”. The route crosses an overgrown slope of Oxyas, with spectacular views of the surrounding mountains and Erythani nature. The road descends gently with short levels and uphill sections to arrive after about 18 km on the main asphalt road leading to Krikello. The 19.5 km trail races ends in the main square of Krikello Village.
Finish Line: Krikello Village

Health Coverage
In any case all runners participate solely at their own risk. The organizers have no responsibility for whatever happens to the runners related to health issues or is due to lack of preventive medical check. It is highly recommended that the participants undergo a thorough medical examination before entering the race. The organizers will not ask for medical certificates from any athlete (male and female), since they all participate at their own exclusive risk and responsibility (children are at the liability of their parents or guardians). We will also provide offers for special health checkup for all runners, and members of their families.

Krikello is a village in the prefecture of Evrytania perched at an altitude of 1120m. It is 30km away from Karpenisi and is situated in a privileged location among dense forests of ancient fir trees, dense fruit trees, rare aromatic plants and shady plane trees that grow alongside the rich waters of Krikelliotis River. The village consists of stone-built traditional houses, with enough local color and its charm compliments the main square with the plane trees, cafes and traditional taverns.
Karpenisi is a town in central Greece. It is the capital of the regional unit of Evrytania. Karpenisi is situated in the valley of the river Karpenisiotis (Καρπενησιώτης), a tributary of the Megdovas, in the southern part of the Pindus Mountains. Mount Tymfristos (2,315 m elevation) lies directly to the north of the town, and the foothills of mount Kaliakouda are in the south. Karpenisi has a ski resort and is a popular destination, especially during winter. It is called
Switzerland of Greece for the resemblance with the mountainous country and its beauty, atypical for a Mediterranean place.
During summer is also a unique destination for visitors especially for nature, mountain and adventure lovers. It offers a variety of activities in a stunning landscape.
Krikello is an ideal place to spend your vacation in the wider area of Evrytania, winter-summer. Here lovers of the natural landscape and the alternative forms of tourism find accommodation all year round. You can go horse riding, rafting, kayaking, and conduct other activities such as nature trails with a 4 × 4 jeep.
In the area, you will be able to taste the traditional flavors of Evrytania accompanied by tasty local wine and tsipouro. The traditional products of Evrytania are of excellent quality and they also attract the most demanding palate. We recommend that you try or buy:
