The MB Enduro is best described as a stage rally like a car rally. The riders have to compete in special stages and the result is the sum of all the special stage times added together. The special stages are mostly downhill stages. Between 2 special stages, each rider needs to ride to the next start using his bike or with chair lift. The link stages are mostly uphill stages.

Participants must be over 15 years old to take part in the MB Enduro.
