Tick tock – tick tock, the clock is striking… This is to remind you that there is not so much time left to this year’s Wawel Cup edition. The deadline for registration falls in 5 days! In the meantime, we would like to introduce to you the lucky winner of free entrance fee: the 335. participant is Marek Wołowczyk from UNTS Warszawa. Congratulation and see You soon!

We are very happy to announce that we gained yet another partner: monthly magazine “Znad Rudawy”, which publishes information from Zabierzow borough (the venue of our last year’s event). It is important to note that again this year, runners from Zabierzow will join our competition. The magazine is now the official media partner for Wawel Cup 35.

The article about Wawel Cup 35. is to be found here.

While going throug this year’s Wawel Cup participants, one may spot both many foreigner’s as well as well-known names. We are more than happy that one of them is the OK Orion runner – Yuri Omelchenko. He gained his World Champion title in 1995 (the year in which the manager of this year’s Wawel Cup was born). His best performance was in middle, in the championships held in Detmold, Germany. Apart from this success, he gained two silver medals in championships in 2003 and 2004. He is also a holder of 3 medals from European Orienteering Championships and he won the World Cup twice. What a career! This year, the runners falling into M45 category will have the chance to compete with the champion. Can’t wait to see who is going to win it!

There is less and less time left, the clock on our website is ticking faster and faster…, and we are happy to announce the 235. competitor. This time the free entrance fee goes to Marcin Ciszek, the CSWliCh Wrocław representative. See you on Wawel Cup.

There is no much time left to this year’s Wawel Cup, but we already want to invite You all, Dear Participants and those who cannot join us this time, to next year’s 36. Wawel Cup! Again we will be back in the North and, alike this year, we want to offer you 5 day run in diversifed terrain. Two stages will be held in Olkusz. Running through medieval post-mine pits might be quite an exam for orienteering skills. We are planning to held one of the phases on Bledowska Desert – absolutely exceptional place due its specifics. During Wawel Cup we cannot miss rocky terrains, so after 7 years we will be back in Jaroszowiec. our event will take place like it used to be: between 5 and 9 July 2017. In few weeks time, will be happy to hand you a special leaflet about basic information on Wawel Cup 36. Therefore we hope that…

…see You!
