After starting in Berane , a nice little village , the riders go around the region , sometimes taking the same roads than the defunct race GP Mojkovac.
The particularity of this race is that there is never the same terrain : Most of it is climbing , and there are a lot of fast downhills. The winning team better uses a downhill guide.
The race is ending in the hamlet of Matesevo , in a very long and wide sprint , adding even more difficulty to the race. Although the race naturally fits more to a climber than to an all-around rider , the winner is usually a versatile rider with a lot of support and strong technical skills.
