Welcome to the most anticipated edition of Lake Ohrid SUP Crossing. Join us on our anniversary and celebrate the SPORT of SUP at this UNESCO Natural and Cultural Heritage region. Experience Lake Ohrid like never before…
26KM - RECREATIONAL PADDLERS
This race is new to the 2025 Race Format and it’s the most demanded race by paddlers that have joined the event in the past editions. Definitely the most FUN category, not just for the paddlers them self's but for spectators as well. Paddlers showing off their skills in this challenge to prove who is the best technical paddler. This category is for paddlers joining the race with Hardboards & Inflatables. Paddlers will have to navigate between the race buoys before returning to their starting position. We are very excited to introduce this race since it highlights the technical aspect of the sport.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: START for the TECH Race and LONG-DISTANCE RACE are NOT on the same location.
This 23km RACE for paddlers using both Hardboards & Inflatables is a long and demanding challenge, definitely a great place to test yourself and push your limits. All racers will have a standing water start which is marked by the 2 Mistral buoys. The riders have 2 checkpoints where they will need to pass by before making a strong finish at the city of Ohrid. The top 3 riders from last year's edition all finished within 1 min of each other. Amazing tempo from all the riders in great water conditions on this flat-water like 23km race. The cut off time is 5h for all participants in the 23km race. Luka Kozar holds the record crossing this course in under 2:30h.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: START for the LONG-DISTANCE RACE and TECH RACE are NOT on the same location.
The 26km ADVENTURE is meant for recreational paddlers and it's our most popular format. It's a guided group tour from our club members from Paddle Klub and the whole 'Crossing' lasts from 6 to 8 hours depending on the number of people registered and the weather conditions that day. This category is limited to 100 paddlers. The 2024 edition featured paddlers from 14 different countries. Since this is a guided group crossing, It is mandatory to paddle alongside the coastline of Lake Ohrid, not more than 50m away from the beach. This means that shortcuts and deviation from the route set by the Organizer are not allowed. All registered participants must follow our team’s instructions and must not separate from the group of paddlers. In collaboration with the Red Cross, the Organizer is providing trained rescue and first aid personnel who will be shadowing the participants throughout the event by boat. The cut of time is 8h.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: START and FINISH are NOT at the same location.
