The zest of the central Finnish orienteers on autumn nights – Kurkocup – gets started this year on September 19th in Heräkulma, Jämsä. The competition offers a wonderful opportunity to catch the athmosphere of the night legs in Jämsä-Jukola next summer. The mass start competition with some tough competitors creates a glimpse of Jukola’s first leg; intense racing man against man, astonishing forking, controlling your nerves and your own performance, fights at controls, glitter of light in darkness. All this in a similar terrain to Jämsä-Jukola not far from the actual competition terrain!

Kurkocup is a shared amusement for orienteers at every level. There are three choises for tracks : Kurko-, Gubbe- and Helppo Elämä (“An easy life”). Taking part is easy, all you have to do is to show up on time. So charge up your lamp, read more about Jukokurko and the whole tour on http://www.vaajakoskentera.com/kurkocup12/ and most importantly, come along!
