This game intends to increase awareness and protect our planets wild and enered animals such as Yaks.In Nepal, a group of mountain bikers started a unique enduro-style mountain biking race in the Annapurna region through a remote mountain village originally named “Yak Ru”. The race is now named Yak Ru and is intended to honor both the village and the wild and domestic yaks of the region. The race will bring sustainable economic activities to these remote areas and support the communities and the environment.
