2026 Edition sets new records!

The eighth edition of “Prishtina Trails,” the largest trail-running race in Kosovo, was successfully held in Gërmia Park in Prishtina, bringing together around 500 runners from more than 20 countries. All race routes started and finished in the heart of Gërmia, highlighting the natural beauty of the capital’s protected landscape and promoting the “Gërmia pa kerre” initiative.

In the main 50 km race, the winners were Erzen Zyberaj (KOS) and Margot Navarro (FRA). In the 23 km race, Stella Zinn (SUI) and Albion Ymeri (KOS) claimed victory, while Litfete Luta Shala (KOS) and Mikus Zagata (AUT) won the 10 km distance. Organizers described the event as another important step in promoting outdoor sports, environmental awareness, and active lifestyles in Kosovo.

Beyond the main races, around 300 children participated in the kids’ run, adding a strong family and community spirit to the event. Organizers also highlighted their sustainability efforts, with this year’s medals produced from recycled plastic bottle caps in partnership with “DYVO Lab.”

“Prishtina Trails” continues to grow every year, with registration spots sold out a month before race day, confirming its status as Kosovo’s leading trail-running event.

See you again in MAY 2027.

Awareness campaigns

At Prishtina Trails, we race with purpose—no plastic, no cars, and a deep respect for nature. In collaboration with the LET Center and DYVO LAB, every plastic cup you bring is transformed into an upcycled race medal, giving waste a new life. At the same time, we proudly support the “Gërmia Without Cars” initiative, promoting a vehicle-free park to keep the trails clean, safe, and peaceful for everyone. By running with us, you’re not just crossing the finish line—you’re part of a movement that celebrates running, community, and the planet. Collect, contribute, and make every step count.

Upcycled plastic medals

Made from over 15 kg of upcycled plastic, our medals turn waste into something meaningful. By reusing local plastic, we reduce pollution and promote sustainability—one medal at a time. Each medal is more than a reward; it’s a symbol of the positive impact we can make together. By participating, you help reduce single-use plastic, inspire others to take action, and support a cleaner, greener environment. Join the campaign and be part of this eco-friendly movement!

More nature, less cars

By keeping cars and other vehicles out of the park, we protect the trails, preserve wildlife, and create a safer, cleaner space for runners, families, and nature lovers. This initiative reflects our commitment to sustainability, encouraging everyone to enjoy the beauty of Gërmia responsibly—on foot, by bike, or on the trails—while reducing pollution and safeguarding our environment for generations to come.

Love your Heart

Prishtina Trails carries the spirit of Erida Kurshumlia, a true inspiration whose passion for excellence and love of nature have left a lasting mark. Through the race, we honor her legacy—encouraging every runner to strive for their best while taking care of their health - especially the heart.
