Explorer mtb challenge 2013

Explorer MTB Challenge will take place in Luncavița Commune on October 5, 2013 and is part of a project to popularize tourism in Northern Dobrogea, a project initiated by the Explorer Tulcea Association and supported by Radio Guerrilla. Held in an exceptional natural setting, which is part of the Măcin Mountains National Park, Explorer MTB Challenge can be an opportunity for participants to discover new, special places, which are not talked about as much as they should be.

The competition takes place through forests and country roads over a distance of approximately 35 km (short course) or 50 km (long course) on October 5, 2013.
