The Baroko ultra 100k course follows the Baroko Marathon route up to Čoubuv mlýn, where it disconnects and after a circuit of about 60k, it rejoins the Baroko Marathon route leading from Čoubuv mlýn to Plasy. On this section, only one part of the route is different, namely the part from the intersection U Šebíkova to Žebnice. The route runs clockwise and has a total elevation gain of 2,108 m (according to the ITRA methodology).
Navigation should be seamless with the help of markings along the course. However, we recommend carrying a map with the route marked as well. The link for printable maps (we recommend A3 format) is here: http://barokomaraton.cz/100.pdf
For navigation, any navigation device can be used. You can download the navigation data here, or at the following address: https://en.mapy.cz/s/2ZLg6.
Warning: The route may change, for example, due to logging. Therefore, primarily follow the markings on the route.
