Last year
In 2012 Gorgany Race started near Peregynske village, Ivano-Frankivsk region. The competition was held in “Trek” and “Bike” categories including mountain biking/cycling, trekking/running, orienteering, rope activities. The teams from 2 to 4 people had to cover the distance of about 90 km (“Trek”) and about 160 km (“Bike”) along the challenging mountain terrain in less than 30 hours. Due to the difficult orienteering in covered with dense forest mountains, a considerable distance, the large differences in elevation, etc., only few managed to pass all the required checkpoints and meet the time limit. Overall, in 2012 the competition was attended by 104 teams (236 people), which represented almost all regions of Ukraine and such countries as Belorussia, Czech Republic, USA.
