Kabacki Run Golden Autumn

It’s time to kick off one of the most atmospheric and picturesque races on the autumn calendar of the capital 💪! The Kabacka Run – Golden Autumn is a unique event that lets you fully savor the charms of this incredibly photogenic season. When the treetops wear thousands of shades of yellow, orange, and red, the forest trails become a magical running course. A loop that’s usually fast, well-prepared, and flat for 5 km or 10 km ⏱️ awaits participants, perfect for testing your form at the end of the season or simply spending an active Saturday among fellow enthusiasts.

The Kabacki Forest in Ursynów, bathed in autumn colors, looks simply spectacular. After collecting your finisher certificate, taking souvenir photos under a shower of leaves, and earning a gorgeous autumn medal, be sure to plan an entire day of fun with your loved ones or your partner 🥇 :

Slow down the pace at the Powis Garden – nestled at the edge of the forest, the garden is stunning in autumn. A stroll along the tree-lined avenues among a changing display of plants and shrubs is the perfect, soothing recovery for tired legs 🌳.

Visit the Royal Garden of Light at Wilanów – if the race takes place later in autumn, after dark, you absolutely must head to the neighboring palace, where thousands of colored LEDs and mappings create a spectacular illuminated labyrinth ✨.

Relax along the Vistula and its quays – an autumn stroll along the river has a nostalgic charm all its own. The capital, seen from this angle, slows down, and the view of the illuminated bridges from the deck of one of the year-round open houseboats makes a wonderful impression 🌊.

Warm up with a hearty pumpkin soup or traditional tripe - after a crisp autumn run, nothing resets you like a warm, flavorful meal. For dessert, definitely grab some cinnamon rolls or a wonderfully soft apple pie served warm with ice cream 🥧.

Warsaw in autumn buzzes with a rich cultural life and is remarkably well connected to the rest of the country (the metro will whisk you to Ursynów in no time). If, after the start, you’d like a momentary escape from the city’s hustle and bustle, you can be in the historic town of Żyrardów or on the edge of the Kampinos Forest in just about an hour by car or train. Pack warmer running clothes, recharge your positive energy batteries, and feel the magic of golden autumn on the course 👟 !
