IKI Walking Competition | Vilnius 2026

"IKI Šaltibarščiai Walking Competition" Returns to Vilnius 🫜

Walking and pink cold beet soup (šaltibarščiai)—two things we all love! Join us at the Vilnius Pink Soup Festival as the "IKI Šaltibarščiai Walking Competition" invites you to explore a city painted in pink for the second year in a row.

Participants will tackle an educational 15,000-step (10.5 km) route through the capital's most charming streets, riverbanks, and squares. The route features engaging discovery points and is available via the free Walk15 app.

The Finish Line & Step Market

• Pink soup ingredients, fruits, and vegetables.
• Treats for your pets and much more.
