About

Carpathian MTB Epic returns for the 3rd edition, with new tracks and an authentic MTB experience, between the 1st and 4th of August 2019. Registrations are OPEN for all passionate, professional and amateur cyclists at special prices starting with 28 January 2019, on carpathianmtb.ro/en.

The event is featured in the S2 category of the International Cycling Union (UCI), giving performance athletes access to 80 UCI points.

Carpathian MTB Epic delivers 4 days of pure mountain biking with over 173 kilometres of pedalling and 8.050 meters of climbing in the heart of one of the last genuinely wild regions in Europe – the Carpathian mountains in Romania. Participation is complemented by the all-inclusive experience, which covers everything from accommodations in the Olympic level Race Village to nutrition & meal plans, complete race services on site and on course and top it all with a high quality relaxation & entertainment programme. We invite you, between the 1st and 4th of August, in Romania’s Carpathian Mountains for a journey that will reshape your mountain biking foundations.

Amateur participants who are not yet ready to cope with 4 days of racing can opt for the 1-Day Challenge event, being scheduled on the 4th of August, on a shorter route, 43 km long and with 1,800 meters of climbing.

Since its first edition, the Carpathian MTB Epic event has been quickly labelled as one of the most spectacular competitions in Europe, due to the special aura of the lands, the full package of services, the exceptional promotion and the quality of the organization. Athletes from over 22 countries join us each year for an unforgettable journey that is all about pushing your limits to the edge, building character, forging new bonds of friendship with passionate riders and experiencing the most EPIC tracks labelled by participants as iconic and breath-taking.

Entries are open exclusively online, on carpathianmtb.ro. Special fees are available for cycling clubs affiliated with National Federations and for large groups of riders.

Rediscover the true nature of mountain biking!

Direcţiile de acţiune ale asociaţiei se îndreaptă atât direct spre zonele şi regiunile de interes (Transilvania, de ex.), cât şi indirect, prin activităţi de lobby şi advocacy pentru definitivarea şi adaptarea cadrului legal astfel încât să susţină şi să stimuleze o dezvoltare sănătoasă şi organică a acestor regiuni. Acțiunile sunt desfăşurate în parteneriate cu actori locali activi, dar şi cu comunităţile locale, care pun în valoare resursele, istoria şi cultura fiecărei comunităţi cu care lucrează, prin metode şi instrumente interactive şi participative. Printre proiectele marcante, implementate de Asociaţia Mioritics, se numără programul Biroului Regional UNESCO din Veneţia ”Cultural Heritage – a Bridge Towards a Shared Future”, pentru cooperare regională, protejare şi promovare a patrimoniului cultural din Europa de Sud-Est.

Happy Visit! #libeartybearsanctuary #visitzarnesti Created in memory of the Maya bear, the Libearty Sanctuary is today home to over 100 brown bears, all rescued from a cruel and abusive life in captivity. Recognized by many specialists as probably the best bear sanctuary in the world, Libearty covers an area of 69 hectares of lush forest, streams, and ponds located on the territory of Zarnesti, the municipality at the foot of the Carpathians, near the city Brasov. Most bears in the reserve were rescued from the most miserable and tiny cages, being only a reason for "fun", tourist attraction. Many were confiscated from the terraces of restaurants, hotels, and boarding houses, but some of them were held captive near factories, gas stations, or even a monastery. Bears that lived in circuses also came to us. Each bear or bear in the reserve has its own story full of drama. Please note that Libearty is a bear sanctuary, not a zoo. The Libearty Bear Sanctuary has been named by Tripadvisor, the world's largest travel site, Traveler's Choice for 2020! It is the second time that the Libearty Sanctuary has received this award of excellence after the one awarded in 2014.
