Quick answers
raceindex.org has a GPS course file for Soča Outdoor Festival Ultramarathon, so runners can inspect the route line on the map. Elevation charts and ascent figures appear only when that file includes usable elevation data.
The Soča Outdoor Festival Ultramarathon route has 2,541 m of ascent and 2,550 m of descent.
The Soča Outdoor Festival Ultramarathon route starts at Sotočje, Tolmin (confluence of the Tolminka and Soča rivers) - the main festival venue and start/finish for the trail races. Underfoot, expect mountain trail with mixed terrain; steel footbridges over the Tolminka and Zadlaščica rivers and a wade across the Tolminka river feature on several courses. The setting includes mountain and parkland. Most courses include a refreshing wade across the ice-cold Tolminka river near the finish.
Refreshment stations and cheering points feature local cuisine and music; the Friday vertical run finishes on the castle walls accompanied by live music at sunset.
The stored route produces 2,541 m of ascent, while a source states 2,140 m. GPS sampling and elevation models can produce different totals, so both are labelled rather than combined.
