Become a 4x4 Europe Marathon Master:
It is a marathon off-road challenge where certain places on our off-road routes are approached. We call these places marathon points.

These marathon points can only be found in our 4x4 Europe Roadbooks. There is a marathon point for each off-road route in the book.
The aim is to collect as many of these points and become the Marathon Master for the respective country/region.

How does the 4x4 Europe Marathon work

Step 1 (prerequisite for taking part in the marathon): 
Order a start number for the marathon in the online shop. You will be registered with us and then receive 2 large and 2 small start number stickers (example NR 99). Order your start number (click here). You only need the start number once and can then drive several marathons.

Step 2: Buy a 4x4 Europe Roadbook book/ebook, it contains all marathon points for the respective region/country.

Step 3: There is an option for each book (incl. participation in the marathon), there is a small processing fee for managing the points and the ranking.

Step 4: You drive on an off-road route from the 4x4 Europe Roadbook, e.g. B. Bosnia and come to a marathon point. You snap a photo of the marathon point and send us the photo with your start number.
Collect the marathon points, the table (in the book) where you can enter a note also serves as a little help.

Step 5: Send us all the photos of the points by email or WhatsApp, stating the start/participant number.

Step 6: We check the points and you are listed as a marathon master on our ranking lists (information on ranking lists is available at www.mdmot.de/de/marathon-ranking).

Step 7: We will send you 2 "Marathon Master" stickers and a certificate.

MDMOT SD + MicroSD card These SD micro SD card is only for Garmin - devices (see list below). Simply insert the card in the Garmin device and all routes, waypoints, POI's and overlay routes are on the device.

General infomation: For even better navigation of our offroad routes we started to create so-called Overlay routes. How can one imagine that: It is a glass foil puts them on a map and draws with a marker, the route to the glass foil, the map remains visible underneath. The routes are as drawn with a felt pen. Advantage: One does not need a GPS device with offroad function, it can be a road navigation device for e.g. Nüvi be used. It is not dependent on how the setting of the GPS device is (shorter route, fastest route, etc.) You can always see where you are so that to lose way is minimized. We have also always the entry points on our CD's so that you can choose to navigated by the navigator to an entry point route, then the overlay route begins. We have this overlay routes just for Garmin - devices (a list see below). Worth knowing about overlay routes 1. Overlays routes are shown in a Navi like roads. The color is red, blue, green or yellow. The overlay routes are not routing capable, that is just as well, because by your special color and style identifier one knows this in Navi. 2. If you move the cursor over such a route then the name of the route is displayed. This overlay routes are seen only less than 3 Kilometres Zoom factor on the device. 5. As selection there are camping and entry points as well as a number of categories. We choose the category entry points.

	3. In the detail view you can now see a straight line route, and there is also indicated an overlay route (red). As you can well see the vehicle is located directly on the route, the air line route deviates, one always knows whether one is still on the right track.
