Karacabey Longoz Run

Bursa will offer a rare kind of race-day escape on May 3, 2026, when the Karacabey Longoz Run takes runners into the misty, water-woven world of the Karacabey Floodplain (Longoz) Forests for a 15K experience that feels more like nature travel than a typical road race. These ancient wetlands—rooted in a landscape with deep historical layers, with birdwatching points, walking routes, and outdoor sport trails that keep pulling people back.

Here, the atmosphere is the headline: footsteps over soft forest paths, the scent of water in the air, birdsong overhead—and the chance to share the same scenery with the region’s famous wild horses. It’s the kind of run where your pace naturally slows at times, not from fatigue, but to take it all in. And even if you’re not racing, you’ll still want to come along—because the Longoz isn’t just a course to watch, it’s a place to breathe, wander, and turn a simple weekend into a nature story.
