THE PAIN PASSES, THE PRIDE REMAINS!

The Race Around Niederösterreich has developed into one of the world’s largest ultracycle races within a very short time. From Weitra, the oldest brewing town in Austria, you have to cover 600 kilometers non-stop clockwise with 6000 breath-taking meters of altitude through the varied landscape of the largest Austrian province called Niederösterreich.

The route

The RAN is the missing piece on the ultracycling calendar. As the season’s opener, this adventure race for solo starters, teams of 2 or 3 is a logical addition to races such as the Race Around Austria or the Race Across America.
