The Janosik Ultra Race (Ultrajanosik) is a multi-distance mountain running event staged in Łapsze Niżne and the surrounding Spisz and Tatra foothills, presenting four main scenic routes that traverse Polish and Slovak terrain. The programme for the 2026 edition centres on a full weekend of activity with an opening evening night race (Nocny Żor), main races on Saturday and final awards on Sunday, and it emphasises a strong cross‑border component with the 75 km Legenda starting from Lysá Poľana in Slovakia. The event is organised by Fundacja Na Ratunek and combines technical trail terrain, substantial elevation gain, mandatory safety equipment for longer distances, and community-focused festival elements such as an afterparty and participant village.
Course choices range from a short nocturnal 3 km up to the 75 km Legenda, giving options for novices, experienced trail runners and Nordic walkers, with aid stations, checkpoint nutrition and official timing provided on the routes. The regulations for the 2026 edition outline age limits, mandatory kit lists, transport to the cross‑border start, and refund/transfer policies, and they note a charitable component included in entry fees. With route maps, GPX traces and a detailed race programme published on the official site, the event aims to offer a well‑supported, scenic and challenging mountain ultra experience for around 1,200 participants.
