ARCHIVED RACE: Mátrabérc Trail @ Sirok Village, Hungary, 24th April 2010

For 23 years, this competition has been the main event not only because of its magnitude, but because it is crossing trough Hungary’s highest mountain the Matra. Therefore it is giving the competitor lot of nice panoramic view of the mountains and valleys.

Throughout the competition there will be an electronic timing system in use, as well as 3 feeding stations, and no set of mandatory gear this year. Every competitor who finishes inside the cut off time will receive a nice bag of goodies. The first 3 competitors (man and woman separately) will receive additional prizes, but no price money.
