GEOPS PROFI – The new challenge for 2024.
GEOPS PROFI is suitable only for a limited number, very well prepared runners!
GEOPS PROFI is 20 km long and total ascent 1000 D+. There will not be any aid stations along the route and the time limit will be 4 hours. Our best sprint distance runners will meet here.
The start of GEOPS PROFI is in the centre of the village of Kushla. The runners will be seen off by the 14 residents of the village as well as all the guests of K3 ULTRA who signed up for the incredible hike to the emblematic caves above Kushla.
After the start the runners will take along a beautiful path that will soon lead them to the very borderline, along which they will be moving for about 15 km. They will have the chance to pass by 8 borderline pyramids, which provide unforgettable views both of Greece and Bulgaria. It is hard to decide which part of the track is the most beautiful, if you just stop for a moment, the whole magic of the border will be imprinted deeply in the runners minds.
At the tenth kilometre GEOPS PROFI joins with the track of GBR 23K, and after another 5 km – the one of GBR 13K. From the borderline follows a descent to the Bucheto area, from whose meadow reveals the most beautiful view of the old town, then comes crossing the Varbitsa river and the finishing line.
Big things happen when people meet mountains!
