The CHALLENGE course (for experienced racers)

The challenge course is an A-B race, meaning that the route continues from start to finish with few or no loops. There will be transition areas (TAs) along the course, where equipment for the next stage will be provided. This means that when you leave Papirfabrikken, you will not get back before the team crosses the finish line. A real expedition! Along the way the course will cross and mix with the Masters course and teams will meet the participant of the European Championships, which have been on their way for several days.

You and your team can look forward to an exciting, fun, challenging and different course in YACS this year.
