The mountain biking
competition (MBT) was held
in the Rarau Mountains on
September 6 and the 27th
brought the trail-running
competition.
The contest aimed to
encourage outdoor and
extreme sports in Romania; to
strengthen human relations
based on fair play and mutual
respect; to promote the most
picturesque locations as well
as the marked and unmarked
walking trails scattered
throughout the Rarau
Mountain area, all set in the
heart of Bucovina.
The MBT employed two
routes, distances of 65 and
35 kilometers, respectively,
which traveled the Rarau
area, reaching the peak of
Rarau located at an elevation
of 1651 m. Two routes
likewise composed the trail
marathon, the lengthier
reaching nearly 35 km, and
the shorter around 2 km.
The start and the end of
the marathons were in
Campulung Central Market
in the city, where the Awards
Ceremony was also held.
