Krkonossky survival is a 20 hour endurance race for teams of 3 in Czech highest mountains Krkonose. The race starts on Friday March 18th at 22:00. Teams collect point by visiting Control Points (CP's).

Teams can choose if they want to move on snowshoe, crosscountry ski or just on shoes. They do additional activities like crossing a river, climbing, short night orienteering run and other special tasks. CP‘s are on interesting places.The lowest and highest altitude during the race will be about 500m respectively 1250m.

Winter conditions together with quick changes of altitude (and possible changes of weather) make this race hard. Each CP has different value of points (written on a map) and the quickest teams on a CP can get up to 10% more. Depending on the order they got to the CP. 

Each year there are a few Czech champions in some endurance sport on the start list. Also European champions in AR 2013 from Poland raced in the race. The limit for the survival is 55 teams. Organizers reserved some places for foreign teams. Every year there’s a race doctor in the race center. There’s a possibility to sleep on floor or in a bed in race center after the race. It should be announced soon.
