The 3-days long race Magraid takes place in this particular and fascinating landscape. It’s a 3 stages-race with overnight stay in a base camp located at “Parareit”, in the Municipality of Cordenons (PN). Magredi (10.097,12 hectares) are a kind of nature unique in the world, marked by steppe, sandy desert, dry riverbed, small streams, stones and pebbles (called “claps” in local speaking).
Rare and typical plants, flowers and animals have lived in Magradi for centuries. The south borders of this territory are marked by “risorgive”, a linear area where water, falling down from near mountains and flowing underground to valley, come back on ground surface creating springs and rivers.
The Magradi area is protected and registered as site of European interest: respect for territory and its nature is requested by specific EU laws.
