- Adventure Racing is a multi-sport concept of combining the following sport disciplines: mountain biking, running/trekking, kayaking and navigation.
- Teams are also expected to navigate using a map and landmarks. Teams must be able to operate in harsh remote environments in all weather conditions.
- Furthermore the teams travel throughout the day and night. They can decide if, when and where to rest.
- The first team to complete the whole course, with all the control points visited will be declared the winner.
- Teams are required to complete the entire distance together (always within hearing and visual distance of each other), helping and assisting each other.
- Teamwork and team dynamics are essential. A detailed understanding of your teammates and of your own capabilities is essential.
