Race Description:

Rajd Beskidy long course is an expedition race. It takes place in the mountainous terrain on the border between Poland and Slovakia. Its length (about 500 km), combined with significant elevation gain (about 15,000 m) and demanding navigation, means that it is a challenge even for the best teams.

In 2025, the HQ as well as the start and finish, will be located in Poland, although most of the route will run through Slovakia. Participants will visit several national parks and places unknown even to local competitors.

Traditionally, besides typical disciplines such as MTB, trekking, and paddling, teams will have to tackle navigation tasks requiring precision and attention, rope work, shooting, and other tasks making it necessary for participants to be versatile. They will receive various types of maps: lidar, itineraries, and transformed maps. The course is intended exclusively for four-person mixed teams. They certainly won't be bored.
