This top XCO trail hosted 133 MTB lovers and competitors from all walks of life. Each round was 4.9 kilometers with 190 meters of climb per lap. The track was very dynamic with a lot of short climbs and descents, various courts of clay and single tracks, winding through groves and fire roads, and of course the inevitable rocky descents that proved an ideal introduction and preparation to all competitors in the upcoming season of the XCO Croatian Cup.
