One of the most challenging marathons in Bulgaria - the Pirin Ultra Ultramarathon - comes to a triumphant end today.

Amidst the majestic scenery of the Pirin Mountains, running along rocky paths and climbing peaks, the race takes place from 21 to 23 September.

Participants compete in 25, 38, 66 and 160 km races, depending on their fitness. The winners of the "shorter" races are already known. Today, the most extreme runners will finish the emblematic 160 km race with 11,000 metres of altitude difference in the heart of the Pirin Mountains.
