Unique obstacle race, an unexpected challenge                

Urban Challenge is an urban obstacle race that will immerse you in a unique atmosphere that you won't easily forget. At each location, you can choose between two routes – 5 km+ or 10 km+, and the decision is entirely up to you. Whether you opt for the shorter or longer route, challenging obstacles await you that you will tackle in various ways. Climbing, jumping, crawling, or sliding, you will encounter these on your route. Don’t worry, you will manage everything regardless of whether you are an experienced racer or a complete beginner. And if you feel that running alone is boring, we have great news for you! You can create a team for the race, where fun and collaboration will play a key role.
