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!

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! mapper: Jacek Morawski course planner: Włodzimierz Dyzio

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. mapper: Wojciech Dwojak course planner: Michał Garbacik
