3rd stage– Vrani Hory

The third stage of the MTB Trilogy combines characters of both previous stages. So bikers can look forward to long trails along the Czech-Poland borderline and sand blocks and rocks along the trails. Riding skills will be checked with gravel downhills. There is an amazing view of the Giant Mountains panorama (with the highest mountain in Czech - Snezka) after a long uphill on the highest point of the stage – Kralovecky Spicak (881 m n.m.). The highlight of the stage is renowned and feared downhill from Jansky hill. The trail leads on the edge of rock (with Keltic menhir) and ends by a very steep downhill with a dusty surface.
