What to Expect

Set against the stunning backdrop of the Paphos coastline, the route begins near the medieval castle and offers a beautiful sunset path for all participants. Beyond the physical activity, the event is designed to be an engaging community experience, featuring entertainment, special surprises, and vibrant installations along the course.

Why We Run
