Parva Pushka Trail
For the second year running, Koprivshtitsa welcomes you with cobblestone streets, an old-world atmosphere, and a new reason to visit — a race that brings together sport, nature, and history. “Parva Pushka Trail” offers a variety of routes that wind through scenic forest paths and open ridges, and even reach the summit of Bogdan Peak (1,604 m) — the highest point of the Sredna Gora mountain.
Our official race T-shirt
The design is the work of Petroff Studio. This is more than just a race tee — it’s a vision meant to carry the spirit of Parva Pushka and Koprivshtitsa. The illustration brings together some of the most recognizable symbols of the event and the place: the “Parva Pushka” (First Shot) Bridge, National Revival architecture, the mountain, the Benkovski monument, and the runners themselves, who tie the history to today’s adventure on the trail.

UTMB Index races
Two of our distances — 25 km and 35 km — are part of the international network of races under the UTMB Index. Successfully finishing races in this network gives you access to the international runner rankings. On top of that, you also get access to priority (and often cheaper) registration for races in the UTMB World Series, which in turn can qualify you for the UTMB World Series Finals — the loop around Mont Blanc massif in Chamonix, France.
