The Race Guide is here!
Seven races. One mountain that doesn't negotiate. From the 5K warm-up through RUNC hill to the 114K crown jewel starting at midnight under Pietrele Doamnei, every distance ends the same brutal, unforgettable way: climbing RUNC.
Inside, you'll find the ground itself:
- the UNESCO old-growth of Slătioara
- the Devil's Mill Gorge
- the legend of Lady Elena and the rocks that took her name.
You'll find the full shape of race week:
- bib collection
- start times
- aid station services
- mandatory gear
- the safety information the mountain expects you to know before you meet her.
And you'll find what Bucovina asks in return:
- run all three days and take the Triple Crown
- bring a book for the Archive of Horizons, and leave something of where you're from in the library at Câmpulung Moldovenesc
- eat at Flavours of Bucovina before the start line ever calls your name.
This isn't a course description. It's an introduction to a mountain that has stories older than the race.
