This mad jaunt hauls you around 7,000 kilometers (4,400 miles) across 11 countries in just over two weeks. Your adventure starts in beautiful Budapest and after a supreme kick-off party, you trek your way across Eastern Europe, the Balkans and Turkey to the wonderful lands of the Caucasus mountains. More exciting than going to a museum, the route takes you straight into the heart of the former (and recent) conflict zones of Bosnia, Kosovo, Northern Georgia and Karabakh, places you’ve probably only heard about on the world news. Wonderful local people, atrocious boarders, ancient architecture, bad roads, endless scenic vistas, pointless administration obstacles, high altitude terrain, subtropical zone, intense heat and cold are only a couple of things you need to deal with before you cross the finish line in Yerevan. Real adventure that beats bungee jumping any day!
This unique event sets out to explore the enigma and exoticness of Eastern Europe. Though Europe has made its way onto the global scene as a world power, Eastern Europe has retained its own character and culture, which still lays relatively untouched by the Western world. The Budapest-Chernobyl Run is for the adventuresome, for those who desire an authentic getaway, and for those who understand that the easy route yields no great reward. Across the bridges of Budapest, up to the doors of Romanian castles, over the Carpathian Mountains, across the Gagauzia region of Moldova, into the breakaway republic of Transnistria, through the Ukrainian countryside and onto the scene of the most devastating accident of the 20th century, you will discover the mysterious spirit of Eastern Europe, build your own stories, and expand your own horizons.
The Trans Sahara Rally is unlike anything you have seen before. The Challenge will draw competitors internationally, including experienced teams from UK, US, Hungary and many others. It has been featured in major media outlets globally for past events and this coverage has a collective audience of millions. Internet media will spread images, video and real life stories to an even wider online demographic. The Trans Sahara Rally is a truly unique race of its kind extending a successful niche in the motor sports industry that is followed by millions of people across the globe through multiple media channels.
