Event descriptionFirst ever multi day orienteering event in Croatia organized on island! Mild climate will guarantee snow-free terrains. Event will be organized on Adriatic shore on unique terrain (complete area was made several hundreds years ago by human hand with countless stone walls filled in with sheep and olives). We want to candidate this area for EYOC 2016.
Terrain descriptionyeArea never used for orienteering before! Unique "karst" terrain - some parts extremely detailed... Bare rock wall labyrinth, hundreds of knolls and hills will challenge your orienteering skills on what we think will be THE highlight of season start 2014 in this part of Europe! (look at photos bellow - taken on emboarged area)
Training possibilitiesPosibility of sprint-tarining relevant for WOC 2014 in town of Krk is possible prior or in days after event - event will take place just beside old town of Krk. We also have rogain map made in scale 1:50 000 for long run trainings on "highland rock-desert" on island of Krk covering almost 1/4 of island of Krk (bigest Croatian island) and 2 sprint maps on Adriatic shore - Crikvenica and Opatija.
Holiday activities,nature,hiking etc.Island of krk is famous for vines ("Vrbnička Žlahtina"), tourism (one of most popular touristic islands in Croatia), preserved rich heritage that dates from ancient times (old Croatian letter - "Glagoljica") and much much more. Come and check it out!
