Kozara, with its beauty in all seasons, leaves visitors with a unique feeling of both relaxation and excitement. Nature has shown all its beauty, richness, and generosity here. 

This mountain has always captivated its visitors with its natural wealth, earning their admiration and offering a place to enjoy. Now, it has opened its doors to sports lovers and those seeking a healthy lifestyle. 

Participants in the Hero's Run OCR will come from across the region—Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Croatia, Montenegro, Slovenia, and North Macedonia—to take on all the challenges awaiting them, say the organizers.

The race concept allows participants to choose between two distances based on their physical preparedness. Those less fit can run a course of about 5 km with around 20 obstacles. 

For the most determined and fittest participants, a spectacle awaits with a 12 km course and around 35 obstacles.

As for the obstacles, the location offers many natural ones, but to make the race even more exciting, there will also be a large number of artificial obstacles. 

Participants will face challenges such as jumping into mud, carrying loads, running up stairs, doing burpees, tire walking, climbing over improvised walls, scaling "giraffes," climbing ropes, and crawling under wires.
