Vaca Mora Night Run

Join us as we head to the legendary Vaca Mora Night Run, returning for it's 15th edition! This is an unforgettable summer event that blends sport, history, and the unique atmosphere of the Altopiano di Asiago under the stars.

What to Expect:

At 21:00, runners and walkers will gather in Treschè Conca di Roana for a spectacular night start along the historic railway path that once connected the plateau’s villages. The 10‑kilometer route, illuminated by headlamps and the warm glow of the evening, winds gently downhill toward Canove di Roana, offering a rare chance to experience this scenic trail in a completely different light.

Whether you're chasing a personal best or simply enjoying the thrill of a nighttime adventure, the Vaca Mora welcomes athletes of all levels. The event features both competitive and non‑competitive categories, making it accessible to anyone who wants to be part of this iconic summer tradition.

With electronic chip timing, a well‑marked course, and a supportive sweep team ensuring everyone reaches the finish safely, participants can focus on the joy of the run. And once you cross the finish line, the celebration continues with the beloved Pasta Party, followed by awards and a festive closing ceremony. The Vaca Mora isn’t just a race, it’s an experience. A night of community, movement, and mountain charm that brings together locals, visitors, families, and running enthusiasts from across the region.

Join us for the 2026 edition and become part of the legend.
