Tara Ultra Trail 2024

Izuzetno atraktivna i ozbiljna ultra sa 3000 metara kumulativnog uspona. Odličan miks različitih staza i terena. Već na samom startu vas čeka epski uspon. Od manastira Rača, pored vidikovca Crnjeskovo, penjete se do platoa Kaluđerskih Bara. Pored jezerceta Jarevac i naselja Šljivovica, staza vodi do najvišeg vrha Tare, Zborišta, na 1544 metra. Odakle nastavlja “single track” preko vrhova Iver i Kršanjska glavica, nakon čega je kraći deo bez prave utabane staze ka selu Lipovica. Ovde vas čeka kratak i jak uspon, nakon koga imate malo asfalta i skretanje na stazu koja void preko vrha Gavran odakle se spuštate ka Sekuliću gde vas čekaju drop bag-ovi. Sledi mirniji deo staze preko koji vas vodi uglavnom makadamskim putevima preko Osluše, pored istoimenog vidikovca, i platoa Sokoline sa fenomenalnim vidikovcem Sokolarica koji gleda na duboki kanjon Rače. Ovde vas čeka strm spust do vodopada Lađevac, zatim blaža deonica do srednjevekovnog manastira Rača, a potom završni deo do cilja u Bajinoj Bašti. Izazov pravljen po meri pravog ultraša.

Extremely attractive and serious ultra with 3000 meters of cumulative ascent. An excellent mix of different type of trails and terrain. An epic climb awaits you at the very start of race. From the Rača monastery, next to the Crnjeskovo viewpoint, you climb up to the Kaluđerske Bare plateau. Passing the small lake Jarevac and the settlement of Šljivovica, the path leads to the highest peak of Tara, Zborište, at 1544 meters. From there, the "single track" continues over the peaks of Iver and Kršanjska glavica, after which there is a shorter part without a real path towards the village of Lipovica. A short and strong climb awaits you here, after which you have a bit of asphalt and a turn onto the path that goes over the peak of Gavran, from where you descend towards Sekulić, where the drop bags await you. The next part is easier taking you by gravel road via Osluša, next to the Osluša viewpoint and the Sokolina plateau with the phenomenal Sokolarica viewpoint that overlooks the deep Rača canyon. Here a steep descent starts leading you to the Lađevac waterfall, then a gentler section to the medieval Rača monastery, and then the final section to the finish line in Bajina Bašta. A challenge tailor-made for true ultrarunners.
