Excellent news from the organizers of the Abu Dhabi Adventure Challenge as they make a massive reduction to the 2009 entrance fee, ensuring access to all teams across the international adventure racing community.

An adventure race of this importance requires serious funds, preparation and logistics but, more than any of these, it requires you.

Without the athletes, there is no race, and to ensure that no team is excluded from competing in this remarkable challenge, the organizers of the Abu Dhabi Adventure Challenge have decided to restructure some of the administrative aspects of the competition in order to reduce costs.

This means that the Abu Dhabi Tourism Authority are delighted to lower the registration fee by €1,000 (~$1,300), bringing the entrance fee for this year's ADAC down to €2,500 (~$3,250) per team and opening the world's most international race to the entire adventure racing community.

Online registration is now open and you can put your names down right away for what promises to be another spectacular event, cleverly designed by our team of experts to expose you to the natural and cultural wonders of Abu Dhabi, a tough contest and some heart-warming hospitality.
