43. Wawel Cup

Blog

Dolina Potoku Rudno – terrain

The area located on the eastern side of the road is again hilly and mostly runnable. The road network is quite developed. Courses will run through the site of the former mine, therefore the area is rich in contour features (wells, mounds, pits, escarpments, ruins). There will be plenty of rocks and a lot of puzzles to solve during a demanding middle distance. Looking forward seeing you there!

AGH Indoor Orienteering – registration

Las Orlej – terrain

The end of April and the beginning of May are associated with intensive field works. The samples of new map are ready – time for a traditional description of terrain.

Las Orlej is a hilly area and most of the map is cutted by deep ravines. The road network is dense. The runability is mostly very good, in some places difficult. Lots of clearings and rootstocks in the forest. There are wetlands as well. An exciting mix is waiting!

Lech Free

We have very good news for you, not that unexpected to some of you! It’s time to present another partner of 38. Wawel Cup edition. We are pleased to announce that after each race the adult runners (18 y.o.+) will get a can of alcohol-free beverage – Lech Free! Getting refreshed at the finish line it’s yet another reason to come to Wawel Cup!

Happy Easter!

We would like to wish you Happy Easter – a lot of health, happiness and… to appearance all of you on the 38. Wawel Cup :D!

Las Orlej 1994

Time for the next samples of what awaits you in the forest during the 38th edition of Wawel Cup. This time we publish old maps, on which the various stages will be held (with the exception of the Kobylańska Valley, because orienteering competition will take place here for the very first time). We start with Las Orlej, the place where the last big competitions took place in the previous century.

We would also like to remind you, that all areas where the Wawel Cup will take place have been closed. “Any form of orienteering or land penetration is considered to be a violation of the map or terrain closure clause.”  

Please remember that “Everything can happen!” during Wawel Cup!
