ABOUT RIV3R HARD ENDURO

Giorgos Tripolitakis, the man behind Riv3r Hard Enduro, had the dream of the first Hard Enduro Race in Greece in 2016 always in collaboration with the Motor Sports Team (MST). From 2018 onwards the race became international with the participation of riders from Europe and Israel. Veria has the best conditions for this. A wonderful old town with a wonderful past, in a landscape dominated by rivers, dry riverbeds, gorges, forests and high mountains just behind the town. The name Riv3r was found quickly – from the three rivers that run through the city of Veria.

Riv3r is a hard Enduro race

The race starts in the river in the middle of the old city and continues through canyons, one of them is known as Hell. It’s exciting to watch the professionals conquer the most incredible climbs and descents.
Our rationale is that racing should push us to our limits and makes us find our own courage, but it should also be fun. This is the Riv3r Hard Enduro.

2023 – Riv3r Hard Enduro 2.0

2023 – Riv3r Hard Enduro
The Riv3r Hard Enduro 2023 (the 5th edition of the race) will become a large multi-day event. There will be a new format with 3 racing days from Friday 8 to Sunday 10 September, with new routes and trails. In order to offer the racers a long journey of Enduro sport, those who can come a day earlier than Thursday 7th September will be able to tour the mountains before the race.
Finally, let’s say that from this year the race counts towards the Balkan Exteme Enduro BMU championship.
The dream continues…..
