Every edition of Adventure Race Croatia explores a new part of our beautiful country. Team of 4 (with one person being of opposite sex) will try to navigate thier way from control point to control point in a number of disciplines. Disciplines include: mountain biking, trekking, kayaking and orienteering.
Adventure Race Croatia is somewhat different from most of the races in ARWS. Not to say that there is anything wrong with other races but we prefer to have shorter stages and more of them. ARC will typically have between 14 -17 stages and hike stages will rarely be over 40 km, bike stages over 100 km and kayak stages over 40 km.
A lot of stages means a lot of transitions so you can think of transitions as a separate discipline because you can loose a lot of time in them if you are not organized, prepared and efficient. So don’t forget to train transitions too.

RANKING
We will introduce a new ranking system for ARC 2024.
Some check points will be Mandatory Check Points (CP) and some will be Optional Check Points (OCP).
Mandatory CP’s are obviously mandatory and teams will need to collect all of them in order to be ranked. Optional CP’s will have time value that will be added to the total race time for teams that do not collect them.
Once a team misses their first Optional CP’s it immediately goes from Full Course team to a Short Course team.
The teams from the Short course cannot be ranked higher than teams from the Full Course.
The winner is the team with all check points (mandatory and optional) collected in the fastest time.
If none of the teams collects all the CP’s (mandatory and optional) the winner is the team that has collected all the Mandatory CP’s in the fastest time (with the added time for every OCP they missed).
