Race Around Poland

Race Around Poland offers three shorter variants alongside the full 3,600-kilometre circumnavigation: a 300km, a 900km, and a 1,800km option. Each starts in Warsaw on the same day as the full distance and follows sections of the same border-tracing route, giving riders at every level access to Poland's diverse cycling landscapes on a shared start line. The 300km distance is achievable in a single long day for a well-prepared rider; the 900km requires three to five days of sustained effort; and the 1,800km — half the circumference of Poland — is a serious multi-week ultra in its own right. All distances use the same self-supported format and the same mix of road and gravel surfaces that characterise the full event. The shorter distances allow riders who are building toward longer ultra-endurance challenges to experience the cultural richness of Poland's border regions — the Tatra Mountains, the Carpathian forests, the Masurian lakes — without committing to a full circumnavigation. The event has a strong community around it in Poland and growing international recognition as one of Central Europe's most thoughtfully designed ultra formats.
