250 km in the raw wilderness of Romania?
Yep! That’s what Ultra Race Romania is all about. But wait… there’s more.
Competitors will cover 250 km (155 miles) over 6 stages, crossing beautiful yet challenging terrain while carrying everything they need to be self-sufficient throughout the race.
The reward? Breathtaking landscapes, unforgettable moments, incredible people met along the way and friendships that often last long after the finish line.
And because at URR the adventure doesn’t end with the race, we’ll wrap up the experience Romanian style with a two-day post-race trip. Depending on the year, we may head back into the mountains to discover more of Romania’s scenery, history and traditions… or trade the trails for the Black Sea, slow things down and enjoy a couple of well-earned days by the coast.
Mountains or sea, one thing stays the same: good food, good stories and the URR family together for a little longer.
