About This Race
The 114K represents the ultimate test at Bucovina Ultra Rocks, demanding runners navigate the complete tapestry of Carpathian wilderness across multiple demanding ascents and technical descents that accumulate nearly 6,000 meters of elevation gain. This distance requires seasoned ultrarunners who can maintain focus and execution through extended night running sections while managing the mental challenge of covering the event's most remote and exposed ridge sections multiple times. Built for runners seeking qualification points and the full mountain experience, the 114K transforms the beautiful but punishing Romanian terrain into a true test of ultra-endurance where pacing strategy and mountain weather management become as crucial as physical preparation.
