More about race:



-Trekking race:

Trekking race is a trail run race with elements of orientation. It is very popular in Croatia and Slovenia! The configuration of terrain is as same as for the trail run race, except for the lane that is not market. There are only control points marked on the map. A competitor receives a map with control points and chooses by himself the fastest way to reach them. In principle, orientation is very simple!



CATEGORIES:



The race is divided into three categories (according to difficulty):



1) Fun and Run category: 10-12 km - is a category designed for walkers, beginners, families and recreational runners who have decided to enjoy the nature for 1-2 hours, but athletes whose intention is to do a great training on cross country and trail run fields as quickly as possible, can also try their hand at this category! Orientation is completely simple; the path is marked by hiking markings, ribbons and arrows so that this category has no mandatory equipment such as a map, a compass, a cell phone, etc. The route of the race will be posted on our website in a few days. A competitor carries refreshment (if necessary) and water is going to be available at two places during the race! A competitor must folow a marked path of the race! All others solutions are forbiden!



2) Mountaineering category: approximately 25 km - this category is designed for all lovers of nature, trackers, hikers, nordic walkers, athletes and trail runners! It lasts 3-5 hours depending on competitor's physical ability. Any active or recreational hiker who once a week walks for couple of hours can successfully end up this race!

Orientation is simple! The route of the race will be posted on our website one day before the race. A competitor carries water and food with him. Water is going to be available in several places during the race!



3) Ultra category- approximately 55-60 km is a category designed for trained and experienced trail runners, athletes, adventure runners as well as for mountaineers, and recreational athletes and sports who are looking for a challenge and examining the limits of their capabilities! Estimated duration of the race is from 7 to 12h!

The race has its own limits on certain control points in the second stage of the race so that those who remain behind are taken to the shortened version of the race which allows them to finish the race at the estimated time! At some control points orientation allows competitors to choose between two or more lanes or to shorten the route which reduces or increases the time spent in the race! In such situations, a competitor who is less oriented won't get lost but will only go slower. The route of the race will be posted on our website one day before the race. A competitor carries water and food with him. Water is going to be available in several places during the race!
