Start times

Entries

No fee – but please sign up via the Calendar on the LuxO website, saying which course you would like to do. Or let orienteer@orienteering.lu know at least a day in advance if you plan to come, and are not a LuxO member. Please sign up no later than 12.00 on the day, so we can print the right number of maps that afternoon, and have you already set up in the timing system.

Everyone is welcome, not just LuxO members. Help and explanations will gladly be provided for beginners.

Start point

Start and finish are both adjacent to the meeting point.

Format

Two courses

• Rabbit   ~ 3.0 km – medium, a bit of climbing
• Deer      ~ 5.0km – longer, more uphill bits

Distances are straight line – optimum routes are ±40% longer.

Planner – Jevgenijs Sproge.

Controls must be visited in the order set. Flags are 15cm kites.

Timing

Timing at each control using SPORTident (SIAC enabled). Bring your own SI timing chip if you can, but if not, you can borrow a LuxO one. Results of all participants to the nearest second will be published.  

Map

Non-standard 1:6 000, OSM ISSprOM, 5 metre contours. Laser-printed, on Pretex semi-waterproof A4 paper.

Mostly residential urban streets. Street running or training shoes optimal.

Safety

Everyone takes part entirely at their own risk. Please take great care, especially on or crossing the more main roads – you do not have priority! High visibility clothing strongly recommended.
