4 Šibenik fortresses (St. Michael (Fortress of Culture), Baron, St. Nicholas, St. John - Tanaj) today with their magnificent contours and the view from them are an exceptional tourist attraction and cultural treasure. The four fortresses are a combination of cultural heritage, a specific urban environment and extraordinary integration into the natural environment. Two of them are restored and becoming an indispensable pearl of the Croatian coast and an unavoidable tourist destination.

Šibenik waterfront and Pavle Šubić Square are ideal starting and ending points. End of the race - the ascent to the fortresses of Barone and St. Michael is the most demanding part of the race. Event 4 of the Fortress, in addition to the half marathon, includes concerts, children's races, a 5 km race but also a beer mile - a popular race at 1,609.4m (miles) with beer drinking according to standard beer mile rules.

The event is also of a socially useful character, because the final goal is actually the renovation or restoration of Šibenik's portals.
