BROOKS 2-STAGE MIDDLE | 25 KM
The MIDDLE courses of Archipelago Trail Run dive deeper into the island trail rhythm. Longer running lines, more open space, and views unfolding above the sea. Coastal paths blend into ridge trails, while the rhythm stays fluid and natural.
Two stages deepen the island trail experience. Long lines, open ridges, and wide sea views. Two stages, two islands, one weekend in the rhythm of the archipelago [archipelago – a group of islands with the sea in between].
You can run one stage or both.
Island trail running | 2 stages, 1 vibe | Run + sea + weekend | Views: Kornati, Zadar Archipelago, Adriatic Sea | Pašman ↔ Tkon
Stage 1 I Dugi Otok | 25 KM | Saturday, October 3, 2026
The Saturday MIDDLE stage starts and finishes in the authentic fishing village of Sali, on the edge of Telašćica Nature Park. The route follows Adriatic coastal trails where running by the sea naturally blends with Mediterranean landscapes, pine trees, and rocky paths.
Coastal sections gradually connect with climbs toward higher points of the island. Up there, the space opens up and the views flow toward the Kornati Islands and the open sea. The terrain remains fluid and varied – dynamic enough for focused running, yet open to rhythm and surroundings.
This MIDDLE stage brings longer running lines, more open sections, and a rhythm that moves in sync with the island itself.
The catamaran ride from Pašman to the start becomes the first step into the archipelago trail story.

Stage 2 I Pašman | 20 KM | Sunday, October 4, 2026
The Sunday MIDDLE stage starts and finishes in the seaside town of Pašman. The route connects Pašman and Tkon, then gradually climbs from the coast toward the island’s central ridge.
The opening section runs through island villages and coastal paths, where local atmosphere accompanies the first aid station. A climb follows toward higher ground, where the rhythm shifts and the space opens wide. Views stretch across the Zadar Archipelago, while ridge sections bring a sense of openness and air—echoing the feeling of Saturday’s run.
Running rhythm, open ridges, and wide views. Sunday on Pašman completes the island story of the archipelago weekend.
