ABOUT THE HEALTHY SPIRIT FESTIVAL
Last year, the second Festival of Healthy Spirit was held in the beautiful surroundings of the Ovčar-Kablar gorge, in which more than 600 competitors participated, from four continents, 12 countries, over 50 municipalities and cities from the territory of Serbia.
Encouraged by the response it had, but also taken aback by the modest knowledge of the participants about this area, we came up with the idea of taking a step closer to informing the general public about the natural beauty of our region.
For this reason, the third Healthy Spirit Festival will be presented in one weekend, 23-25th June 2023 in the heart of the Ovčar-Kablar gorge, Ovčar Banja.
This year’s organization will be very challenging for the organizers Association of Čačani in Čačak and Sports Association Čačanski half marathon, and for the participants and visitors we can say adventurous and colorful, because we are organizing nine races in less than 30 hours.
In addition to the rich sports program, the participants themselves will have the opportunity to learn much more about the Ovčar Banja, the Ovčar and Kablar mountains, the Zapadna Morava river, the Serbian Holy Mountain, as well as all the beauty that the Ovčar-Kablar gorge offers.
