Krakonos brewery is located in the center of the town of Trutnov. Since 1994, the brewery has been operated by the Trutnov company Krakonoš spol. s r.o. Currently, the Krakonoš brewery produces five types of beer with a total volume of over 100 thousand hectoliters per year. For Christmas and Easter, the market is enriched with a strong special light beer Krakonoš 14. The beer is distributed in Bohemia, mainly in the East, but also in Moravia. The Krakonoš brewery produces beer using the classic bottom-fermented beer technology. The beer is unpasteurized, microbially filtered. For the production of beer, water is pumped from its own well, which is over 80 meters deep and is supplied by the Krkonoš springs.

IONTMAX focuses on personalized functional hydration based on real sodium and mineral losses through sweat during performance. It’s not just about drinking fluids, but about giving the body exactly what it actually loses under load.

They build on natural products without unnecessary additives and solutions that work in real conditions – both in training and during races. Part of their approach also includes hydrogel-based nutrition, which helps the body absorb energy more efficiently and gently. This reduces digestive strain, lowers the risk of stomach issues during performance, and allows for more stable energy intake over longer efforts.

We’re happy to have IONTMAX as part of the race and to support athletes in both performance and recovery.

The number 777 = an iconic lucky number symbolizing the right way = the total number of competitors to date, less than a month before registration deadline.
