The
Extreme Bardenas, as its name suggests, is more than just another mountain bike event. It involves covering over 100 kilometres of arid land in the Bardenas at temperatures that can be exhausting. Even though the participants need to be very fit, the success of the event does not lie in coming home first; just making it to the finish is sufficient!
One of the great attractions of this
non-competitive race is the landscape it passes through: the
natural park of Las Bardenas, a unique place considered the "first desert in
Europe".
