Blog

Stage IV – terrain (Wysota)

The 4th stage will be held around Wysota Hill. A typical mountain run awaits you. Runnability from very good to difficult in places, the road network is limited. In some parts of the map there are various landforms. Once again, you can expect routechoices typical for the long distance.

Stage III – terrain (Hutnianska Mountain Pass)

The terrain of the 3rd stage is typically mountainous with large elevation gains. Runnability and visibility are very good. There will also be deep ravines and watercourses in the forest. The stage will be characterized by a high density of control points. Power in the legs and efficient navigation are the key elements of the equipment of a good orienteering runner!

Stage II – terrain (Hutnianska Mountain Pass)

For Friday morning we have planned the shortest stage for you, with a relatively small number of elevation gains. The area is very well runnable, the road network is practically non-existent. In the forest you will find numerous watercourses, marshes and rock formations. This mix is intended to guarantee an unforgettable experience!

Stage I – terrain (Hutnianska Mountain Pass)

We start presenting descriptions of the terrain and the specifics of each stage.

The area of the 1st stage offers you struggles with typical mountain characteristics. The forest is mostly very well runnable and the road network is moderately developed. The area is crossed by 4 deep ravines, which require the selection of individual routechoices. And it is the selection of routechoices that is to be the main challenge of this stage. A stage with the characteristics of a shortened long distance race.
