IX Gryfiński Bieg Niepodległości

Runners and Nordic walking enthusiasts are invited to explore the scenic city streets on November 11, 2026. The event features two distinct races: a 5-kilometer run through charming urban landscapes and a parallel 5-kilometer Nordic Walking route designed for those who prefer trekking poles over traditional running shoes.
Participants will start in the heart of the city, where they'll be greeted by enthusiastic crowds lining the streets to cheer them on. The race course takes runners past historic landmarks and vibrant neighborhoods, offering panoramic views of the urban skyline as well as glimpses into local culture through colorful street art and lively cafes.
For Nordic Walking enthusiasts, the route is carefully crafted to maximize engagement with nature while staying within city limits. Trekking poles are provided for those who need them, ensuring that everyone can enjoy this unique form of exercise in a supportive environment.
Both races conclude at a central park where participants will find refreshments, live music, and activities for all ages. The event promises not only physical challenges but also an opportunity to connect with the community and celebrate fitness together.
The race is open to runners of all skill levels, from beginners looking for their first 5K experience to seasoned athletes aiming for personal bests. Join us on November 11, 2026, to discover why this event has become a beloved part of the local running and Nordic walking scene.
