The three-stage “Bokami Západných Tatier” race, or simply BOKAMI, is one of the largest ski mountaineering holidays in Slovakia during the ski mountaineering season. The event is held under the auspices of the Slovak Mountaineering Association JAMES and connects the Liptov and Orava regions. BOKAMI is a continuation of the long-standing tradition of ski mountaineering races in the Western Tatras dating back to the early 1990s. It is the only multi-day and also the most demanding ski mountaineering race in Central Europe and has gained renown and respect in the wider European context. Since the first year (2008), this race has been associated with the number three – it is organised by three ski mountaineering and mountaineering clubs in three valleys, and the competitors complete three stages over three days, during which they cover approximately 60 km and around 6,000 meters of elevation gain. This year you can look forward to taking part in the 15th year of the event.
