Wawel Cup won’t be lacking of rocky terrains, challenging orienteering and hot atmosphere! We are also now ready with few innovation for next year event!

– brand new design for our website as a communication channel with you

– a separation of roles of event director and accommodation director what will help the process of booking the accommodation (at gym hall or at camping) more efficient

– novelty: stage with a mass start – it will be technically challenging and eye-catching!

– afternoon sprint run in the rocks – separate sign up available

– more control point in the forest so that orienteering run during Wawel Cup will become even more difficult.
