3 ROUTE The route of the competition will go across the two communes: Polska Cerekiew and Cisek. Both of them are situated in the south-east part of Opole Voivodeship, in Odra s small affluent valley. The basic function of both the communes is agriculture. The area is almost forestless. In this very picturesque area, the three loops have been marked out: red one 37,5 km, yellow one 15 km and blue one 20km (2x10). An altitude difference on the route is about 45m. Last year, the biggest loop 37,5 km gave competitors a possibility to achieve good time results, since about 10km of the loop runs along a straight, lawny path next to Odra River. The rest of the changed route goes through lanes and the short lenghts of asphalt roads. START / FINISH, VET GATES, CREW POINTS Start and finish will be situated closely to the stable (about 200m), as well as the crew point and vet gates. There will be also a bar which is going to be open from early in the morning. Crew points: 37,5 km loop 4 points 15 km loop 1 point 20 km loop (2x10) 1 point All the places where the route crosses with asphalt roads, as well as the crew points will be secured by the Voluntary Fire Department from Polska Cerekiew and Cisek communes.
