Race Areas

Stage 1 - 28 March 2024 - Tirsbæk Forest

Hilly terrain with some deep valleys and isolated hills. In the northern part, the terrain is flat. Varied vegetation mainly consisting of deciduous forest. There are areas of undergrowth, but the runnability is generally good during spring. Well-developed road and path network. The majority of the forest is owned by the Tirsbæk Estate. The forest has not been used for open orienteering races since 2017.

Stage 2 - 29 March 2024 - Rosenvold

Overall hilly terrain dissected by several deep valleys, isolated hills, and gently dipping slopes. There are also flat or slightly hilly parts, and in many places a detailed contour image occurs. Varied vegetation mainly consisting of deciduous forest. There are areas of undergrowth, but the runnability is generally good during spring. The majority of the forest is owned by the Rosenvold Estate, and the forest is only rarely used for orienteering events. It is a real treat. In 2023, the Danish Long-Distance Championships were held in the Eastern part of the forest with great success. The Easter race will make use primarily of the Western part, which means the forest will be a new experience to most participants.

Stage 3 - 30 March 2024 - Grund Skov

Hilly terrain with several deep valleys and gently dipping slopes often with intricate contour details. Varied vegetation, generally consisting of deciduous forest. In several areas, fallen beech trees occur in the forest floor. The runnability is generally good in springtime. The character of the forest has changed in recent years due to nature-based forestry. In the middle part of the forest, owned by Hotel Vejlefjord, there is a very well -developed path and track network. The remaining parts of the forest are publicly owned, and here the path network is less well developed. However, some major forest roads also dissect these parts.
