B-HARD Ultra Race & Brevet No.7 Banja Luka, Bosnia & Herzegovina 13-18th of June, 2025
Our event is unique in many ways but primarily as it has been specifically designed to boost positive image and promote tourism of a very understated and beautiful country while at the same time allow you to move your personal limits. The 1215 km route has been carefully crafted to represent Bosnia & Herzegovina “in a nutshell” and passes through National Parks, along rivers, lakes and waterfalls, over 1984 Winter Olympics ski-centers, by UNESCO World Heritage sites and generally over stunning (and hilly) terrain. Although unsupported in its essence, it’s not a hardcore survival task but a perfect blend of our traditional hospitality, sightseeing and cycling – therefore it is an amazing and unforgettable cycling experience, both for expert and novice endurance riders alike.
