Zealand to host Montane Adventure Race European Championship in 2026
The Montane Adventure Race European Championship is scheduled to take place in Zealand, Denmark, from August 27 to 30, 2026. The event will feature 50 teams representing 17 different nations.
The competition consists of a 375-kilometer course through the natural, cultural, and coastal landscapes of Zealand. Teams of four will navigate the terrain using maps and compasses, engaging in various disciplines including mountain biking, climbing, swimming, paddling, and orienteering.
To increase the challenge, the specific route will remain secret until 12 hours before the start. Participants will receive a roadbook 48 hours in advance containing descriptions of the race and cultural elements. The fastest teams are expected to complete the course in approximately 36 hours, with a maximum time limit of 48 hours.
