RBKC challenge

About the race

The RBKC Challenge is a multi-sport race in the Ardennes, organised by the Royal Brussels Kayak Club, which is where the abbreviation comes from. Participants combine three disciplines between the Nisramont dam and La Roche-en-Ardenne. They begin with an eleven-kilometre trail from Lohan to Nisramont, get into a kayak there for a stretch towards Engreux, and cover the final part on a mountain bike: forty kilometres back to the Lohan campsite, or twenty-eight kilometres with a time penalty. Electric mountain bikes are permitted but do not count towards the classification. The start and finish are at the Lohan campsite.
