UTMB Index Races UTMB Index logo

Our races are included in the UTMB Index Races. The 20 km index applies to all long-distance courses. It is an international points-based rating system for trail races. After completing the race, runners receive a UTMB Index based on the distance of the course, their performance, and their placement.

Conti Speed Section

The Conti SpeedSection is a speed section on the course that you can get for a selected 150 metres. Its start and finish will be marked with Continental flags. In the Bachledova dolina we will compete on the 10 km Lesnícka route and also on the 20 km route where the winner (1 male and 1 female) will receive a voucher worth 200 EUR for the purchase of new tyres and the 2nd and 3rd place winners will receive a Continental running t-shirt.

Completion of the race is a prerequisite for inclusion in the bonus.


Each participant can win a tire voucher a maximum of twice per season. If they win again in another race, the prize will be transferred to the next runner in the ranking. The original winner remains in the results and receives a Continental running jersey as a reward.
