Training

Training in spring 2014

There will be six different training maps available in three training areas near Kuopio in spring 2014. The maps are varied and well suitable for Jukola training. The maps are printout maps of good quality, size A4. Control descriptions are also printed on the maps. The controls are marked with a short white plastic tube in the forest, with the control code. Training maps cost 5 euros each, and the postage. Alternatively the training maps (2) of each training area are available as OCAD attachments, 120 euros / file.

Training weekend 29.5. – 1.6.2014

There will be a weekly orienteering event on May 29th in the terrain of Kuopio-Jukola between 2 – 5 pm. The map will be a printout map of the Kuopio-Jukola competition map. The control points will have a control buck and electronic punching in Jukola style. The controls will also be marked with reflectors so it will be possible to train at night time as well. Course lengths: A course 6,6 km, B course 4,7 km and C course 2,6 km. Start is located at the junction of Enonlahdentie and Puutossalmentie 3 km from Vehmersalmi Bridge. Limited parking space!
