The race course is a big challenge for the competing athletes, because it runs on a forest path connecting 4 mountain peaks around Da Lat including: Lang Biang; Pinhatt, Nui Voi and Bidoup.

This is the first time the tournament has been held on a pilot basis, so according to the Organizing Committee, this year's tournament will only have 3 distances: 10km, 20km, 50km. It is expected that the start and finish will be at Lavender Dalat Tourist Area in Tuyen Lam Lake Tourist Area in Da Lat. The number of athletes participating in this year's tournament will also be limited to about 1,000.

Mr. Nguyen Tu Anh, representative of NEXUS Media Joint Stock Company - the organizer of the tournament, spoke at the meeting.

However, according to the Organizing Committee, in the long term, the tournament will increase the number of conquered distances to over 100 km. At the same time, the number of athletes competing in the tournament will increase from 8,000 to 10,000 in the next 3 years.

Speaking at the meeting, Colonel Nguyen Thi Thuy Thanh said the tournament aims to improve the health and spiritual life of police officers, soldiers, officials, civil servants, workers in Lam Dong province and people across the country.

Representatives of the local police where the race will take place spoke at the meeting.

The tournament combines sports activities with eco-tourism, introducing and promoting the natural beauty and fine cultural traditions, and the hospitality of Lam Dong people to domestic and foreign tourists. Thereby, contributing to promoting the economy, society and tourism of Lam Dong province.
