The second edition of the West Carpathian Ultra Challenge will lead from Jakubovany to Lozorno (near Bratislava). It follows a beautiful 1000km route through mountains and valleys. The race starts in Jakubovany and makes a 430 km loop before it joins the shorter WCC route (about 600 km) to Lozorno. The highlights of the loop are Kráľova Hoľa (the highest point of the route with 1946m), Slovenský raj (Slovak paradise), Spišský Hrad, Levoca with its mountains and astonishing views of the High Tatras and Sliezsky Dom in the High Tatras.

The participants of both events (WCC and WCUC) will melt in the field after the CP1 in Jakubovany.
